What does the "engine failure" light on my Opel Corsa mean?
Years 2019-2026

Answer

If the Engine warning light comes on in your Opel Corsa and stays on and flashes, it can often indicate that a very risky situation is arising. In fact, the catalyst could be overheated because it was damaged, which means that it could catch fire at any moment; therefore you have to stop the vehicle and not continue the race. Or there could be a general malfunction of the injection system. In order to know the origin of the problem, it is still necessary to carry out a diagnosis in the workshop.
