Check Engine Light Flashing

The check engine light flashing on a 2014 Chevrolet Spark signals a potentially serious misfire or condition that can damage the catalytic converter if driven long-term. A flashing indicator often means the engine is misfiring, which increases unburned fuel in the exhaust stream and can overheat emissions components. At Larry H. Miller Casa Chevrolet in Albuquerque, NM, we treat flashing check engine lights as urgent: our certified technicians perform a priority diagnostic to determine whether the issue is electrical, fuel-related, or ignition-based. Addressing a flashing condition quickly saves immediate repair costs and preserves long-term reliability — delaying service can multiply expense and downtime. We use OEM parts, manufacturer-approved procedures, and offer transparent estimates so you understand chargeable repairs versus simple resets. Check for current incentives before your visit by viewing our service specials. If financing is needed, our service financing options let you get repairs now and pay over time. Call or schedule service online to protect your Spark and avoid costly downstream damage.

2014 Chevrolet Spark Check Engine Light Codes

Common diagnostic trouble codes for a 2014 Chevrolet Spark include P0130–P0167 (oxygen sensor and circuit issues), P0300–P0304 (multiple or cylinder-specific misfires), and P0420 (catalyst system efficiency). Each code points to a different repair path and cost implication: oxygen sensor replacement and testing typically resolve emissions and fuel trim issues quickly and affordably, while unresolved misfires can damage the catalytic converter — an expensive repair. At Larry H. Miller Casa Chevrolet in Albuquerque, our approach is fast and transparent: we scan, diagnose, and present OEM-based recommendations, showing immediate and long-term savings from correct repairs and warranty-backed parts. Choosing our dealership often costs less than independent shops when factoring in reduced diagnostic errors, proper parts fit, and continued warranty protection.
