2016 Hyundai Azera Check Engine Light Flashing
A flashing check engine light on a 2016 Hyundai Azera usually signals an active engine misfire. A misfire lets unburned fuel enter the exhaust stream, which can quickly overheat and damage the catalytic converter — a costly repair. Flashing often indicates diminished drivability: you may feel rough idle, hesitation, or loss of power. Because of the risk of further engine or exhaust system damage, do not ignore a flashing light; stop driving when safe and have the vehicle inspected immediately. Courtesy Hyundai of Tampa can perform a fast, accurate diagnosis using factory-grade tools and recommend repairs. Addressing flashing issues promptly saves money now and prevents higher expenses down the road.
2016 Hyundai Azera Check Engine Light Reset
Resetting the check engine light on a 2016 Hyundai Azera can be done with an OBD-II scanner or by addressing the underlying issue and clearing codes. However, clearing codes without diagnosing the cause masks symptoms and risks larger failures later. Our dealership recommends a full diagnostic so repairs are completed by factory-trained technicians who use OEM parts and proper procedures. Warranty-covered work must be performed at a certified dealership to keep coverage valid. Choosing Courtesy Hyundai of Tampa often results in immediate and long-term savings: we provide accurate repairs, genuine parts, and documented service history that preserves resale value and warranty rights.

2016 Hyundai Azera Check Engine Light Codes
Common check engine codes for a 2016 Hyundai Azera include P0300 (random/multiple cylinder misfire), P0171/P0174 (fuel trim lean), P0420 (catalyst system efficiency), and oxygen sensor codes like P0130. Ignoring these codes can cause progressive damage: misfires can ruin ignition components and the catalytic converter; lean conditions reduce performance and fuel economy; failing O2 sensors allow poor fuel control and emissions failures. Repair costs vary — sensor swaps and ignition parts can range from low hundreds, while catalytic converter replacements and major engine repairs run significantly higher. Early diagnosis at Courtesy Hyundai of Tampa minimizes total spend and protects long-term ownership value.
