My Lexus IS250 has the check engine light ON for a transmission shift solenoid malfunction. The Lexus runs fine and it passed the smog check emissions. Will it still fail for the check engine light being on?
Answer:
Unfortunately the DMV considers any problem which causes the check engine light to turn on, a smog check failure. We realize the problem your Lexus IS250 is facing is only transmission related, however since the Check Engine is illuminated it will fail the smog check.
