Yes the check engine light is on, the o2 sensor wire broke.
Jesus Christ man learn how to work a car. You need to put tape over that check engine light.
If you wait long enough you can sometimes win the battle is wills and it goes out, meaning that the problem has fixed itself. Or that the bulb also now needs repairing.

“Yep, engine still there”
engine checked
TIL 🙏
Fix that wire before you cause damage to your catalytic converter or worse. The sensor is important for the engine to calculate the proper amount of fuel it has to inject. Too little (lean) and too much (rich) are both detrimental to your engine’s well-being.
Oh yes. Had literally just happened. I’ll swap it out soon.
Narrator: he never replaced that O2 sensor, but the catalytic converter never suffered any direct consequences either, despite all the dire warnings from Lemmy, since the thief who stole it kept it safe from any unburned exhaust gases.
Jeep, the converter is probably just fiberglass and wasp nests
Why does your car have MPH and km/h? Is it Canadian? Sounds like the only place where things are almost normal, but then there’s these glaring reminders that they have a deranged southern neighbour.
Most of my cars in the US have had them. Digital ones you can choose the unit. I’ve always driven Japanese cars, but I’ve seen it in rentals also.
TIL, thank you. Never thought American cars would have km/h, maybe there’s hope yet.
/s we’re all doomed, it’s fine
I’ve never driven an American market car whose speedometer was only in miles.
It’s because they are also sold in Canada and Mexico
To anyone out there’s who isn’t aware, do not take your car to a dealership or auto shop with no idea why the check engine light is on. Instead used a Fixd diagnostic device or something similar to get more details. At least that way you are arming yourself with information and are less likely to be ripped off.
Even better, get the 15 dollar Bluetooth odb2 reader and the Torque app for another 5. Tells you not only codes but all kinds of neat data.
Humble brag toyota
Not this baby, Jeep ZJ, and not even the 4.0
Yo is your engine running?
Nah caught it just short of the gate
