What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a Impala?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Impala can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Can you clear the Impala check engine light on your own?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.

All About 2005 Chevrolet Impala Drivetrain Service

Your Impala’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Chevrolet, from back to front.

Care for your 2005 Chevrolet Impala to maintain its performance power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Chevrolet's recommendations.
