Check Engine Light Flashing

A flashing check engine light in a 2017 FIAT 500e Battery Electric is a sign that a fault is actively affecting drivability or component safety. Unlike a steady light that indicates a stored code, a flashing light often means the vehicle’s control systems are detecting an intermittent fault that could cause immediate performance problems or risk to the electric drivetrain. At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Dodge Ram FIAT Denver in Denver, CO, our certified technicians prioritize flashing-light cases and use manufacturer-level diagnostic tools to capture live data, run targeted tests, and identify whether issues originate in battery control modules, inverter systems, or auxiliary sensors. Early diagnosis reduces the risk of more extensive repairs, preserves battery health, and maintains range and reliability. We offer transparent estimates, OEM parts, and workmanship that protects your warranty—repairs under warranty need to be completed at a certified dealership to remain valid. Check for current promotions and loyalty incentives under our service specials, and when safety is at stake, don’t wait: schedule service online or call our service center for immediate assistance.
