Check on Solaris. What to do if the Check Engine light comes on

Car: Hyundai Solaris. Asks

: Smirnov Kirill. Essence of the question: How to reset the "CHECK"?

Hello! I have a Hyundai Solaris, and the "check" is constantly on! I already went to the station maintenance and found out what the problem was. The first time they threw it to me, and now it appears again, while the behavior of the car has not changed in any way. Please tell me how I can reset it myself, because I don't want to pay for it again in the service.


Diagnostics and removal of errors that occur on Hyundai Solaris may be needed by the vehicle owner in various situations when there is no desire to do this work in a certified service center.

It is not difficult to do this work, the main thing is to know what you can remove yourself errors related to the first level , that is, those that are not recorded in the ECU memory, which do not significantly affect the operation of the car and its devices. Because only a special dealer device (scanner - approx.) Can remove such errors, one of these errors is an error in the car's airbags.

When are errors removed on their own?

Among all the important malfunctions on the Hyundai Solaris, some can be reset on their own after carrying out one or another repair.

So for example error codes with 301 by 304 , talking about a spark in one of the cylinders (the last digit of the error refers specifically to the cylinder - approx.).

Accordingly, when these gaps are detected, the ECU will give a signal in the form of a burning "CHECK", which cannot be removed without erasing the code or resetting the terminal from the battery.

This error is completely removed, only by replacing the non-working candle with a new one, after which the error will disappear by itself.

Self-dumping of a check on Hyundai Solaris

It is possible to reset errors on your own on Hyundai Solaris thanks to the OBD-II protocol and the presence of a special adapter with a diagnostic device, be it a smartphone or a computer that supports Bluetooth wireless technology.

In order to check errors on the car, we perform the following steps:


Diagnostic and error reset process without OBD-II

On Hyundai Solaris, you can diagnose and remove errors without even having any additional devices at hand.

Diagnostics (this method does not work)

The method described below runs all over the Internet. We checked on our editorial machine. He does not work. We cannot delete the method, as some owners may think that it works.

Removing errors

  • In order to remove the error, it is necessary to do the entire above-mentioned course of work from 1 to 5 points, and without turning off the ignition, press the "gas" again.
  • After that, turn off and turn on the ignition, start the engine.
  • If the progress of the work was done correctly, the error should be removed.

As you could see for yourself, there is nothing difficult in removing the error on Hyundai Solaris yourself, no.

In the video, the check is burning and the Hyundai Solaris stalls

If on dashboard your car, the Check engine indicator light is on (or simply the "check" is on), you should at least be on your guard. The reasons for this can be very varied - from a loose gas cap to serious engine problems.

What does the Check engine indicator mean

The name of the Check engine indicator literally translates as "Check the engine". However, the engine, when the light comes on or flashes, may have nothing to do with it. A lit indicator may indicate a problem in the fuel supply system, failure individual elements ignition, etc.

Sometimes this can be a very minor problem - for example, a loose fuel cap or a catalyst malfunction. Nevertheless, it is impossible to ignore the indicator signals in any case, as this can result in serious problems.

Sometimes bad fuel quality can be the reason for the indicator to light up. So do not be surprised if, after refueling at an unfamiliar gas station, you see the Check engine light flashing.

Usually the indicator is located on the dashboard of the car under the engine speed indicator. It is indicated by a schematic engine or a rectangle labeled Check engine or simply Check. In some cases, instead of an inscription, a lightning symbol is depicted.

Is it possible to continue driving when the light is on

Worn out brake pads, the time has come for the next maintenance, the speed is incorrectly switched, poor quality fuel is used, the voltage of the on-board network has dropped - all this can become a reason for the Check indicator to light up. First of all, you should check the motor. If the alarm is caused by engine faults, it is dangerous to continue driving.

The problem is aggravated by the fact that it is impossible to independently determine the malfunction of a modern internal combustion engine by smell or color. You should contact a professional who, using a scanner, will identify a malfunction, if, of course, there is one.

A lit Check light may indicate various breakdowns - it is better not to ignore it

Therefore, if after restarting the car, the light does not go out, you can only drive to the nearest car service. They will conduct a comprehensive diagnosis of the engine and its systems.

Operation of a car with a lit Check engine icon leads to increased consumption fuel, unstable engine operation, reduced traction characteristics of the vehicle. Moreover, in this case, the car owner may lose the car repair warranty.

Why the light bulb came on and how to fix it

The main situations in which the indicator lights up, and the recommended options for the motorist's actions:

  1. If the Check engine lights up when the car is started and immediately goes out, there is no damage to the engine. The reason for the fire is most likely harmless - the loss of the fuel tank cap or its not twisting. It is enough to wrap it tightly and check if the warning has disappeared.
  2. If the indicator lights up while driving, stop and check the wires. You may find a cable hanging under the hood or an open battery terminal. This applies to everything attachments - wires, hoses, etc.
  3. If the lamp flashes while driving, stop and check the sounds made by the engine, pay attention to the oil level, inspect the side parts of the engine. If no visually obvious violations are found, it is recommended to drive to the nearest car service and carry out diagnostics.
  4. If the engine is running normally and the Check light is flashing continuously, it is most likely an ignition failure. You should check the candles and the coil, pay attention to the quality of the fuel. To do this, it is better to contact the nearest autodiagnostic center.
  5. If the indicator is constantly on, you must stop, unscrew the candles and check the gap. Gaps that exceed 1.3 may cause the light bulb to come on.
  6. In addition, when the "check" is lit, the ignition is usually checked. In any car service there are special testers that allow you to determine the deterioration of the insulation of the wiring.
  7. The cause of the light bulb may also be faulty. fuel pump... You should stop and listen to the sounds from the gas pump. Smooth humming without clicks and pauses is considered normal. If appear extraneous sounds, the pump should be dismantled, rinsed from the inside and the filter cleaned.
  8. A serious engine malfunction may be indicated by the coolant temperature. If it is above 85–90 degrees, and the Check engine lights up when driving, the engine is definitely faulty. In this case, it is advisable to call a tow truck or drive at low speed to the nearest car service.

We have already noted that Check lights up yellow or orange every time the engine is started. It is normal for the blinking to last no more than 3-4 seconds and stop along with the blinking of the other dashboard lights. Otherwise, follow the recommended steps above.

Resetting or zeroing the Check indicator

In most cases, as the table shows, Check lights up when a sensor fails or changes in vehicle operating conditions. However, even after diagnosing and eliminating the malfunction, the light sometimes remains on.

The point is that the "trace" of the error remains in the computer's memory. In this case, you should "reset" or "zero" the indicator readings. This can be easily done on your own by performing a number of simple operations:


The sensor is zeroed and the Check light is no longer lit. If this does not happen, contact the service center.

When the Check engine light on the dashboard comes on, it almost always requires the vehicle to stop immediately. Practical use of the recommendations given in the article will help you to avoid complicated and expensive engine repairs. Good luck on the road!

Many of us have faced such a problem as the inclusion of an indication of the engine icon (Check engine ...), the appearance of which scares car drivers. We offer you the 5 most common reasons why an engine check on the dashboard lights up.

The engine gauge icon usually appears without warning. The reason for the appearance of the Check engine cannot be immediately understood. Even if there is an auto diagnostics in the car (for example, in such cars as,), which scans all systems of the car for errors and, if any, displays a decryption on the information panel, the reasons for the appearance of the engine check will not be decrypted.

For most drivers, the appearance of this warning symbol on the instrument panel means that they urgently need to go to a car workshop to diagnose and eliminate the reason for which the engine check warning sign appeared. But in fact, in most cases, when the "Check" indication appears, it is possible, and in some cases, perhaps, to eliminate the cause on your own without a trip to a car service, which will save your money.

1. Replace the oxygen sensor (lambda probe)

The oxygen sensor in your car is part of the exhaust system exhaust gaseswhich controls how much oxygen is not burned out in the engine's combustion chamber. This sensor helps to monitor the fuel consumption of the vehicle. Malfunction oxygen sensor (lambda probe) means that car computer receives incorrect data, which can significantly increase fuel consumption and reduce engine power. Most cars have 2 to 4 oxygen sensors. If you have a home car scanner errors, then by connecting it to the car, you can easily find out which sensor needs to be replaced.

For what reason the oxygen sensor in the car becomes unusable: Over time, the sensor becomes covered with a layer of waste and engine oil (oily soot), which reduces the accuracy of the sensor readout for regulating the gasoline mixture and optimal distribution. A malfunction of the oxygen sensor in the car leads not only to, but also to an increased content of harmful substances CO2 in the exhaust.

What needs to be done: If you do not replace a faulty car oxygen sensor, this can lead to failure of your car's catalyst (may burst), which will result in costly repairs. The cost of new catalysts is very high due to the content of precious alloys in them. On some cars, there are several catalysts, the cost of which can go up to 90,000 rubles. So do not delay replacing the sensor. Although the replacement of the sensor and its cost is not very small, it is incommensurate with the cost of the exhaust gas neutralizer system. You can also save on replacement costs by doing it yourself. Many car manuals have detailed instructionshow you can replace the oxygen sensor yourself. If you know where the oxygen sensor is, then it will not be difficult for you to disconnect the faulty "lambda probe" and replace it with a new one. Remember to pull with the replacement of this important element you can't pull!

2. Check the fuel filler cap


Many drivers in most cases, when the "check engine" indication appears, will think about serious problems in the car's engine, but will not even think to check the tightness fuel system, which can be broken due to a defect or insufficiently tightened fuel filler cap. This is a very common cause of the "Check" engine icon.

The reason for the error: Leakage of the fuel system due to the passage of air, the filler cap of the fuel tank, will increase the fuel consumption of the car, for which the car diagnostic system will give an engine error by turning on the "Check engine" indication on the dashboard of the car.

What needs to be done: If, when the "Check" indication appears, your car has not lost power, and there are no sound signs of engine damage (knocking in the engine, hum, creaking, etc.), then first of all check the tightness of the gas tank. Your gas cap may be cracked or not tight enough. If the cover was not tight enough, then after tightening it all the way, continue driving the car for a while to see if the engine error disappears. To prevent an engine check from appearing for this reason, regularly check the fuel filler cap. Remember that periodically the cover must be replaced with a new one!

3. Car exhaust catalyst


The car catalyst helps the car to make the engine exhaust gas cleaner. It converts carbon monoxide and other harmful substances into harmless compounds. If your exhaust gas catalyst has become unusable, you will notice this not only when the engine badge (check) appears, but also long before that, when the car's power drops by 2 times. For example, when you press the gas pedal, the car, as before, will not have good acceleration dynamics.

Because of what the automobile catalyst can fail: if you regularly service your car in accordance with the maintenance regulations car company, then the catalyst should not fail. main reason failure of the catalyst, it is not timely replacement a faulty oxygen sensor, as well as irregular replacement of spark plugs, at the end of the expiration date. When the oxygen sensor or spark plugs are faulty, the conversion of carbon monoxide in the catalyst into harmless chemical elements stops, which leads to overheating of the catalyst, which can fail as a result.

What needs to be done: If your catalyst has become unusable, then you cannot drive the car, since the engine will not work correctly, warning about this by an indication on the dashboard with an engine icon (check). Also, your fuel consumption will be greatly increased, and there will be no engine thrust. Although replacing a catalyst is a very expensive repair, there is nowhere to go from repairs. Although there is an alternative to replacing the catalyst with a flame arrester, this is not a 100 percent option. Unfortunately, if you are not an experienced auto mechanic, then you cannot replace a faulty exhaust gas catalyst yourself. In any case, you will have to go to a car repair shop. Remember that timely replacement of oxygen sensors and spark plugs protects your catalytic converter from damage!

4. Replace MAF sensor


The mass air flow sensor regulates how much air must be added to the gasoline mixture for optimal fuel ignition. The sensor continuously informs the vehicle computer of the amount of oxygen supplied. A defective MAF sensor increases fuel consumption, increases CO2 levels in the exhaust gas, and decreases engine power and ride comfort. Also, with a faulty sensor, poor acceleration dynamics is observed. In cold weather, a car with a faulty sensor will not start well.

What are the reasons for the failure of the mass air flow sensor: Most sensor failures occur due to improper installation of the air filter during its scheduled replacement. Also, if you do not regularly change the air filter, as required by the vehicle maintenance schedule recommended by the manufacturer, the MAF sensor may fail.

What needs to be done: In theory, you can drive for a long time with a broken MAF sensor (several weeks or months). But you will notice that the longer you drive, the more fuel consumption increases. Replacing a sensor in a car service is not that expensive, since the work itself does not take much time and is quite simple. The main costs are associated with the cost of the sensor, which for some car models can be 11,000-14,000 rubles if it is an original sensor or up to 6000 rubles if it is an analog substitute. Self replacement the sensor is very simple. But due to the low cost of replacing the sensor, you can entrust this work to the master in the car service. Remember that you need to regularly change the air filter, observing the vehicle maintenance regulations!

5. Replacing spark plugs and high voltage wires


Spark plugs in a car are the main ignition parts. fuel mixture... With faulty spark plugs, the spark is incorrectly supplied to ignite the gasoline mixture. In faulty spark plugs, there is often a lack of a spark or an incorrect spark interval, which affects wrong work engine. If the spark plugs do not work properly during acceleration, especially from a standstill, you may feel small jolts.

What are the reasons for the failure of spark plugs: Most spark plugs in vehicles prior to 1996 need to be replaced every 25,000-30,000 kilometers... In newer cars, spark plugs last over 150,000 km. However, various factors related to fuel quality and driving style can reduce these spark plug replacement times.

What needs to be done: If your candles have not changed for a long time, or if you feel dips associated with ignition in the engine, then you must immediately replace them with new ones without delay. Do not try to save on untimely replacement spark plugs, since the cost of the spark plugs is not very expensive, as is the work of replacing them. Replacing old spark plugs will improve engine performance and reduce vehicle fuel consumption. Replacing spark plugs yourself is easy enough. Mostly they are easily accessible under the hood of the car. You need a regular spark plug wrench to remove the spark plugs from the engine. It is also advisable to monitor the status high-voltage wires, as over time they can become unusable and allow electricity to pass, which is transmitted to the spark plugs, which will reduce the strength of the spark. Remember that regular replacement of spark plugs, in accordance with the maintenance schedule of your car, keeps your exhaust catalyst from damage, and also improves engine performance!

Essence of the question: How to reset the "CHECK"?

Hello! I have a Hyundai Solaris, and the "check" is constantly on! I already went to the service station and found out what the problem is. The first time they threw it to me, and now it appears again, while the behavior of the car has not changed in any way. Please tell me how I can reset it myself, because I don't want to pay for it again in the service.

If the CHECK lights up when the engine starts, then you should not worry. But if the check is on when the engine has already started, then you need to find out the cause of the error.

Diagnostics and removal of errors that occur on Hyundai Solaris may be needed by the vehicle owner in various situations when there is no desire to do this work in a certified service center.

It is not difficult to do this work, the main thing is to know what you can remove yourself errors related to the first level , that is, those that are not recorded in the ECU memory, which do not significantly affect the operation of the car and its devices. Because only a special dealer device (scanner - approx.) Can remove such errors, one of these errors is an error in the car's airbags.

When are errors removed on their own?

Among all the important malfunctions on the Hyundai Solaris, some can be reset on their own after carrying out one or another repair.

So for example error codes with 301 by 304 , talking about a spark in one of the cylinders (the last digit of the error refers specifically to the cylinder - approx.).

If the error signals a misfire in the cylinder, first of all, they look at the state of the spark plug. In the photo, the candle is the culprit of this error.

Accordingly, when these gaps are detected, the ECU will give a signal in the form of a burning "CHECK", which cannot be removed without erasing the code or resetting the terminal from the battery.

This error is completely removed, only by replacing the non-working candle with a new one, after which the error will disappear by itself.

Self-dumping of a check on Hyundai Solaris

It is possible to reset errors on your own on Hyundai Solaris thanks to the OBD-II protocol and the presence of a special adapter with a diagnostic device, be it a smartphone or a computer that supports Bluetooth wireless technology.
