Check Engine Light Flashing
A flashing check engine light on your 2023 Dodge Hornet is a signal that immediate attention is required. Flashing typically indicates active misfires or other serious engine problems that can damage the catalytic converter and other components if the vehicle is driven. At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Albuquerque in Albuquerque, NM, our certified technicians prioritize flashing-light diagnostics and repairs to prevent costly downstream damage. We begin with a thorough battery and charging system test because a weak battery can cause erratic sensor readings. From there, we perform a targeted scan with OEM-level tools to identify misfire codes, fuel delivery issues, or ignition faults. By choosing dealership service you get transparent estimates, genuine Mopar parts when replacements are needed, and repairs performed under warranty when applicable — prolonging the life of your Hornet and saving you money over time. Check our current service specials for discounts, and schedule service online for same-day checks and fast repairs.
2023 Dodge Hornet Check Engine Light Reset
Resetting the check engine light on a 2023 Dodge Hornet can be done with an approved scan tool, but a simple reset without diagnosing the underlying fault can mask issues and lead to bigger repairs later. At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Albuquerque we follow a diagnostic-first approach: we read and record trouble codes, perform battery and emissions system checks, repair the root cause using OEM parts, and then clear codes so your vehicle returns to reliable operation. Our technicians document the process and explain how the repair protects long-term value. We also offer service financing to make necessary repairs affordable now while you pay later. The dealership delivers clarity on cost, time, and warranty coverage — and any warranty work must be completed at a certified dealership to remain valid.

2023 Dodge Hornet Check Engine Light Codes
