Dashboard warning light flickering

[eddiesteady9]

I was driving my 2018 Toyota Corolla LE yesterday when the dashboard light started flickering.. it's the yellow one that looks like an engine block.
The light kept on blinking on and off but the car was still okay to drive coz I got home safe.
Anyone else know what dashboard light flickering mean? Something I can fix on my own?

It seems like your check engine light is acting up. If it's blinking, that often indicates a misfire, and you definitley don't want to overlook that since it could harm the catalytic converter. The issue might be with the spark plugs, the coil, or even something straightforward. I'd recommend checking the code with an OBD reader first, you can find inexpensiv ones that work perfectly well. This is a simple way to pinpoint the problem before you start replacing parts

Check engine light, if its blinking then it means serious business. Like @SunRiser better to scan it to know exactly where to look, though if youre not handy with cars then I think its a waste to even get one. Just go directly to the dealer and let them know what's wrong and so they could fix it right at the bat.

Please don't try to fix it on your own. i agree with everyone's suggestion here to get this to the dealer or your trusted mechanic to make sure

This is some solid advice. If your check engine light is blinking, it typically indicates a misfire, and ignoring it could potentially harm your catalytic converter. If you're familiar with it, using an OBD reader to check for codes is a wise first step. But if you're not so comfortable with that, your best bet is to take your car to a dealer or a trusted mechanic. It's always better to be safe than sorry
