Check Engine Light Flashing

The check engine light flashing on a 2010 Hyundai Elantra is a sign of a serious misfire or condition that could damage the catalytic converter or compromise safety. A flashing indicator typically means unburned fuel is entering the exhaust stream, which can overheat and ruin emissions components. At Coggin Deland Hyundai in Deland, FL, we treat flashing lights as urgent and recommend you stop driving when safe and bring the vehicle in immediately. Our service team runs a prioritized diagnostic, inspects ignition components, fuel delivery, and exhaust integrity, and provides a clear estimate before any work begins. We use genuine Hyundai parts and factory procedures so repairs last, and we honor warranty requirements—repairs covered under warranty must be completed at a certified dealership. Take advantage of current service specials and ask about service financing to handle urgent repairs without delay. To protect your engine and avoid larger bills, schedule service now or contact us for immediate assistance.

When you choose our certified technicians, you receive transparent diagnostics, OEM parts, and documented repair workflows that protect resale value and long-term reliability.

2010 Hyundai Elantra Check Engine Light Codes

Common check engine light codes for a 2010 Hyundai Elantra include P0420 (catalyst efficiency), P0171/P0174 (fuel trim issues), P0300-P0304 (misfires), and P0456 (evaporative system leak).
