Hyundai Matrix 1.6 GLA engine CHECK light blinking and car shaking

ivan99 · 11-18-2012, 05:06 AM

Hi and good day.
My Hyundai Matrix engine CHECK light is blinking when I am driving. It flashes then stay constantly on for a few seconds and flashes again. As I drive, I can feel the car vibrating under my legs. It really scares me. I tried adding water to the reservoir and engine oil seems enough but nothing seem to change.

What is the problem?? Really appreciate any help here, thank you!

Sounds like you have a misfire on one of your cylinders. If you have a code reader it will tell you which one(s).

Check your spark plug...

Pls check your spark plug Cable too
1. Check the cap and outer shell for crack
2. Measure the resistance with AVO meter,
resistance should not be higer than 10K ohm per foot of cable
if resistence is higer, replace the cable
