Check Engine Light Flashing

A flashing check engine light on your 2020 Ram Promaster City is a warning that requires immediate attention.

Addressing a flashing light quickly reduces parts damage, protects emissions systems, and prevents more costly repairs down the road. We use OEM parts and manufacturer procedures so repairs are durable and covered by warranty—remember warranty work must be completed at a certified dealership to remain valid. Take advantage of our current service specials and ask about service financing to make immediate repairs affordable.
