Check Engine Light Flashing

A flashing check engine light on a 2019 Lincoln MKT is a serious warning that should not be ignored. It usually indicates a persistent misfire that can quickly damage the catalytic converter and other engine components; continued driving may increase repair costs dramatically and risk unsafe running conditions. At Herb Chambers Lincoln of Westborough we treat flashing lights as priority items — our technicians perform an immediate electronic scan, ignition and coil tests, fuel-system checks, and a catalytic converter inspection. If a failing battery or charging system contributes to the issue, we’ll perform a complete battery health and alternator check and offer OEM battery replacements on the spot. Take advantage of our rotating service specials and service financing to manage costs while getting factory-correct repairs. For urgent attention, schedule service online or call our Westborough service team to arrange priority diagnostics and get back on the road safely.

2019 Lincoln MKT Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2019 Lincoln MKT without fixing the underlying fault is only a temporary fix and can hide developing problems that harm fuel economy and engine life.

Our certified technicians use OEM-level scanners and follow Lincoln factory procedures to ensure the issue is resolved and that your reset is permanent and correct. We document repairs, record reset events, and update your service history so warranty claims remain valid.

2019 Lincoln MKT Check Engine Light Codes

Common check engine codes for the 2019 Lincoln MKT include P0420 (catalyst efficiency), P0300 (random/multiple misfires), P0133/P0135 (O2 sensor issues), and P0455 (evaporative system large leak). Left unaddressed, these codes can lead to increased fuel consumption, failed emissions tests, and costly parts replacement — for example, a worn oxygen sensor may reduce economy and lead to catalytic failure; catalytic converter replacement can run into the thousands if delayed, while a loose gas cap or simple sensor swap is far less expensive. Herb Chambers Lincoln of Westborough emphasizes prevention: our thorough diagnostics identify the correct repair the first time, using OEM parts and factory procedures to minimize long-term costs. We also provide complimentary multi-point inspections with many services and offer service financing plus regular service specials to make timely repairs affordable.
