Check Engine Light Flashing
The check engine light flashing in a 2017 Ford Shelby GT350 is a serious alert: it often indicates active misfires or conditions that can damage the catalytic converter and drivetrain if driven. The 5.2L V8 in your Shelby is a high-performance engine designed for precision; ignoring a flashing light risks expensive repairs and reduced performance. At Larry H. Miller Ford Lakewood in Lakewood, CO, we prioritize rapid response—our factory-trained technicians will perform an immediate code scan and road test to isolate misfires, fuel delivery concerns, or ignition faults. We explain recommended repairs, parts, and timing so you can make a confident decision. We also offer service financing so you can address urgent repairs immediately and spread payments over time. Check for relevant service specials that may lower the immediate cost. If the light flashes, stop driving if possible and schedule service—this protects the engine and prevents costly catalytic converter damage.
2017 Ford Shelby GT350 Check Engine Light Codes
Common diagnostic trouble codes for a 2017 Ford Shelby GT350 include P0300-series misfire codes, P0420 catalytic efficiency codes, and sensor-related codes like P0130–P0167 for oxygen and HEGO sensors. Each code has implications: untreated misfires can warp heads or ruin the catalytic converter, sensor failures can reduce fuel economy and performance, and emissions faults can lead to failed inspections. At Larry H. Miller Ford Lakewood we use OEM scan tools to read freeze-frame data and live engine parameters for precise diagnosis. We’ll present cost estimates for repair and explain how timely service saves you money by avoiding bigger failures, improving fuel economy (important with the Shelby’s premium fuel recommendation), and preserving resale value. Our certified technicians install OEM parts and back repairs with dealer-level warranties—repairs under warranty must be performed at a certified dealership to remain valid. To get started, schedule service and review available service specials.
