Check Engine Light Flashing
A flashing check engine light on your 2026 Dodge Charger is a sign of a potentially severe issue—commonly misfire, ignition failure, or problems that can damage the catalytic converter. In Boise, drivers trust Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Boise to address flashing warnings immediately. Our factory-trained technicians perform prioritized diagnostics to stop ongoing damage: we scan for misfire codes, inspect ignition coils, spark plugs, fuel delivery, and the battery/charging system that can influence engine performance.

At our dealership you’ll find transparent estimates, OEM parts, and a clear explanation of immediate and long-term benefits of each repair option. We also offer service financing so you can complete necessary repairs now and manage payments over time. Before you arrive, check our current service specials, then schedule service online—our service advisors will prepare a prioritized plan to protect your Charger’s performance and value.
2026 Dodge Charger Check Engine Light Reset
Resetting the check engine light on a 2026 Dodge Charger is technically simple but not always the correct solution. Our Boise dealership explains why: clearing codes without repairing the underlying condition can hide problems until they worsen, erode fuel economy, or void warranty coverage. At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Boise we use OEM-level diagnostics to both clear codes and verify repairs. After identifying and addressing faults—whether a weak battery, sensor failure, or emissions component—our technicians reset the light and run verification cycles to ensure the issue won’t return. Choosing the dealership ensures transparent documentation, genuine parts, and certified technicians who honor factory warranties; remember, warranty-covered repairs must be performed at a certified dealer. We also provide clear cost estimates and emphasize long-term savings from correct repairs done once. Check our current service specials and schedule appointment today to get a thorough inspection and professional reset that protects your Charger’s reliability and resale value.
2026 Dodge Charger Check Engine Light Codes
Common codes for a 2026 Dodge Charger include P0300 series misfires, P0420 catalytic converter efficiency, P0171/0174 fuel trim, and P0130–P0167 oxygen sensor and circuit faults. In Boise, Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Boise provides clear, code-specific guidance: for example, unresolved misfires (P0300) can lead to catalytic converter failure—an expensive repair—while oxygen sensor faults can reduce fuel economy and increase emissions.

Our dealership approach focuses on accurate diagnosis, using OEM parts to restore factory performance and offering documented service that supports warranty claims. Customers appreciate our quick turnaround, direct communication, and service financing options that make timely repairs easier.
