The alternator generates electricity to charge the battery and power the vehicle's electrical systems.

There are many electronic components and sensors that manage your vehicle's emissions and performance. When one of these fails, the "check engine" light or "CEL" is illuminated (commonly yellow) on your dashboard. Although your car may seem to run or drive fine, it is important to have the issue addressed to prevent damage from occurring. There are times when a check engine light is a simple fix, and others where it is a much more serious problem.
