Question Check Engine light

7500 miles on the car and now it looks like I could have my first issue?!? Check engine light came on last night. Gas cap, check. Oil level, check....

Any other ideas before I spend time at the dealership? What can I do to diagnose on my own.

Thanks for any feedback!

Run to any car parts store and buy yourself a OBDII scanner. Or you can let Autozone scan it for you for free.

P.S. Don't let the word Autozone scare you, a OBDII scanner is a OBDII scanner. They're all the same and won't hurt your car. Get the codes and come back to us.

Me too..

My check engine light is on also. I already pulled my code, it was #507 idle higher than expected. I looked it up in the service computer and it said probably the accelerator pedal sensor. I watched the output on my scanner and it went from 2% throttle open to only 94% throttle open. Going to the dealer tommorrow. Fun Fun..
