Check Engine Light Flashing

A flashing check engine light on a 2025 Honda Ridgeline typically indicates a severe misfire or condition that could damage the catalytic converter and other components if driven. This is an urgent signal: continue driving only if absolutely necessary and at low speed to a safe nearby location, then bring the vehicle to Hare Honda in IN immediately. Our technicians perform a prioritized safety inspection, real-time diagnostics, and road tests with factory tools to isolate the misfire source—ignition, fuel delivery, or engine mechanical issues. Addressing a flashing light quickly reduces repair scope and long-term costs; an immediate repair can prevent catalytic converter replacement, which is significantly more expensive than the initial fix. We maintain transparency with written estimates, OEM parts, and technician certification, and we honor warranty requirements that repairs covered under warranty be completed at a certified dealer. Check our service specials for current offers, and schedule service online to secure same-day attention.

Common check engine codes for a 2025 Honda Ridgeline include P0420 (catalytic efficiency), P0300 (random/multiple misfires), P0171/P0174 (fuel trim lean), and P0135 (oxygen sensor heater).

At Hare Honda in IN we diagnose codes quickly using OEM-level scanners, prioritize repairs that prevent cascading damage, and explain cost-impact scenarios so you can choose an effective plan. Our certified technicians, genuine parts, and documented service deliver measurable long-term savings compared with repeated fixes from guesswork-based repairs.
