That is way too much information to analyze. If the Check Engine light is on, the pace to start is by reading and recording the diagnostic fault codes. Those will indicate the circuit or system that needs further diagnosis.

Hi GRAHAMDAWN1,

If you decide you would like to conduct the scan yourself here is a link to an article that features written step by step instructions and pictures explaining how to do the scan yourself. Also, I have included a link to our YouTube channel with a how to video on code scanning.

This is applicable even if your check engine light is not on.

Most scanners are inexpensive to purchase, you can purchase one online from sites like Amazon.com

Once you have the codes please get back to us so that we can further assist you. We are always happy to help. Also, most auto parts stores will read the codes for you for free.

Thank you for visiting 2CarPros.com.

Kindest regards,
