Hi HUmmer-ites

Bought a H3, three weeks ago. Took her for a long drive and the malfunction indicator light has come on. She is a 2008 model. Anyone of you had the same problem ?

Check engine lights can be caused by many things, from very minor, to a significant problem capable of further damage to the motor.

Is it running smooth, no misses or rough idle?  Have you done anything to it modification wise.  Since it is new, I would take it to the dealer for a scan.

Good luck, let us know what it turns out to be.

H3? ......you mean all 5 plugs.

I am glad it was a minor item.  Still a PITA to have to go back to the dealer, but you are good to go.
