Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my Sebring?

A multitude of problems can activate your Sebring’s malfunction indicator light (better known as the check engine light), including issues with the engine, transmission, sensors, electrical system, or connectors.

Is it possible to reset the Sebring malfunction warning light on my own?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your Sebring's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your Sebring.

How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Sebring?

A drivetrain malfunction in your Sebring should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.

Does my Sebring transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Sebring’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Sebring forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1997 Chrysler Sebring, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Chrysler's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.
