Check Engine Light Flashing

When the check engine light is flashing on a 2011 Honda CR-Z it signals a potentially severe misfire or condition that can damage the catalytic converter and other components if driven.

At Coggin Deland Honda in Deland, FL, our factory-trained technicians diagnose misfires, ignition and fuel system issues, and emissions-related faults with OEM diagnostic equipment. We emphasize fast, accurate repairs to minimize repair costs over time — preventing a minor issue from becoming an expensive repair. Our service advisors explain the condition, repair options, and cost estimates before any work is performed. We also highlight immediate and long-term savings from using genuine Honda parts and manufacturer procedures: accurate repairs reduce repeat visits and extend vehicle longevity.

2011 Honda CR-Z Check Engine Light Codes

Common trouble codes for a 2011 Honda CR-Z include P0130–P0167 (oxygen sensor circuit faults), P0300–P0304 (misfire detection), and P0420 (catalyst system efficiency).
