2000 Chrysler Sebring with Check Engine Light ON.

My 2000 Sebring's Check Engine Light is on. What should I do? Should I take my car to the mechanic first or after I take my car to get the smog check?
Answer:

Definitely get the Check Engine light problem on your 2000 Chrysler Sebring fixed before you visit a smog check station. Your Sebring will fail the smog check because the check engine light is on. You have to get it fixed first. A smog check repair shop will extract the trouble codes stored in your Chrysler's engine computer, and using the trouble code/s can locate the problem causing the check engine light to illuminate and fix the problem. Once the check engine light is turned off and the trouble codes erased, your Sebring can be smog tested. posted by SmogTips Support
