Opening your hood is a good first step when you see a check engine light. Here’s how to do it:
  • Release the hood lock by pulling the lever located on the driver’s side just above the emergency brake. The hood should pop up slightly.
  • Go to the front of your car and feel inside your hood for the catch lever to release and lift the hood.
  • Hold the hood open by inserting the support rod.
Whether you need an oil change or some kind of
basic maintenance work
, be careful and make sure to close the hood of your car completely when you’re done to protect your engine.
