2025 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid Check Engine Light Flashing

A flashing check engine light on the 2025 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid signals an active misfire or other severe engine fault that can rapidly damage the catalytic converter and related systems. Continued driving with a flashing light risks overheating, contaminating emissions components, and escalating repair costs. If you see a flashing light, reduce speed, avoid heavy loads or towing, and arrange immediate inspection—towing may be advised if performance is impaired. At Toyota of Greenville, factory-trained technicians use dealer-grade diagnostics to pinpoint the cause, replace necessary OEM parts, and safeguard your warranty. Prompt service reduces total ownership costs by preventing secondary damage and preserving long-term value.

2025 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid Check Engine Light Codes

Common check engine codes for the 2025 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid include P0420 (catalyst efficiency), P0456 (EVAP small leak), P0171 (system too lean), and P0300 (random misfire). Ignoring these codes can increase expenses: an untreated P0420 may lead to catalytic converter failure, costing $1,000–$2,500 to replace; EVAP leaks flagged by P0456 are often inexpensive if repaired early ($50–$250); lean conditions or misfires (P0171, P0300) can degrade fuel economy, damage ignition components, and result in repairs from a few hundred dollars to over $1,200. Choosing Toyota of Greenville secures accurate diagnosis, OEM parts, and warranty protection—delivering immediate savings and reducing lifetime repair costs.

Resetting the check engine light on a 2025 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid can be performed with an OBD-II scanner or will clear automatically after the underlying fault is repaired.

Our approach often costs less than independent shops once you consider right-first-time fixes and preserved warranty benefits—warranty repairs must be completed at a certified dealership to remain valid.
