The check engine light in your 2016 Chevy Equinox can come on for various reasons, but often it is related to the emissions system. A common culprit is a loose or missing gas cap, which the vehicle sees as a problem because it is meant to contain fuel vapors and improve fuel efficiency. If the system detects a drop in pressure, it triggers the check engine light. Other potential causes for the light to illuminate include a faulty O2 sensor, a worn-out or stolen catalytic converter, or a loose exhaust part.
