Chevrolet Check Engine Light service at Larry H. Miller Chevrolet Murray in Murray, UT Frequently Asked QuestionsFrequently Asked Questions
9 common questions answered
What does the check engine light mean on a 2014 Chevrolet Impala-Limited?
It means the powertrain control module stored an OBD-II trouble code, such as P0442 (EVAP small leak) or P0300 (random misfire).
When your 2014 Chevrolet Impala-Limited triggers the light, the computer records freeze-frame data and a code that identifies the affected system. Some causes are minor, like a loose gas cap; others can impact performance or emissions. Our Murray service team uses factory scan data to confirm the fault and verify the fix so the light stays off.
- Code identifies system, not the failed part

What are the most common reasons for a check engine light on a 2014 Chevrolet Impala-Limited?
Typical causes include O2 sensor faults, EVAP small leaks (P0442), MAF performance issues (P0101), catalytic efficiency (P0420), or cylinder misfires (P0301–P0304).
On a 2014 Chevrolet Impala-Limited, these faults range from minor evaporative leaks to drivability problems that can damage the catalytic converter if ignored. We serve Murray and the greater Salt Lake City area with OEM-level testing to isolate the true root cause before parts are replaced. Book a visit to confirm the issue and prevent costlier repairs.

Is it safe to drive my 2014 Chevrolet Impala-Limited with the check engine light on?
If the light is steady, drive cautiously to service; if it’s flashing, stop driving immediately to prevent catalytic converter damage from severe misfires.
A steady light on a 2014 Chevrolet Impala-Limited often indicates a non-urgent fault, but you should still schedule diagnosis soon. A flashing light signals active misfire and potential overheating of the catalyst, which can become expensive quickly. In Murray traffic and Utah’s temperature swings, prompt testing protects performance and emissions compliance.
- Flashing = tow recommended to avoid damage
- Steady = reduce load, check soon

Why should I get my 2014 Chevrolet Impala-Limited diagnosed at Larry H. Miller Chevrolet Murray vs. a parts store free scan?
Parts stores read codes; dealer diagnostics identify root cause using factory scan data, guided tests, and GM technical service information.
A simple code pull on a 2014 Chevrolet Impala-Limited can’t confirm which component failed—many codes have multiple potential causes. Our OEM-certified technicians in Murray use manufacturer procedures to test circuits, sensors, and vacuum systems before recommending repairs. You’ll receive a written estimate with findings so you can approve only what’s needed.
- Factory-level data and bidirectional testing
- Issue isolation to prevent repeat failures
- Transparent estimates before any repair
Will resetting the check engine light on my 2014 Chevrolet Impala-Limited pass emissions?
No—clearing codes resets OBD-II readiness monitors, and Utah emissions typically require monitors set with no active faults.
If you reset the 2014 Chevrolet Impala-Limited’s light right before a test, the inspection tool may flag “not ready,” causing a failure. The correct path is to fix the root cause, complete a drive cycle, and verify monitors are ready. Our team in Murray can confirm readiness with a pre-test check and advise next steps.
- Verify monitors and codes before testing
- Drive cycle guidance after repairs
- Book a readiness check: schedule service
