If the check engine light is illuminated on your 2009 Ford Fusion's dashboard, there could be various underlying issues. Your first step should be to safely pull over to prevent further damage to the engine. After finding a secure stopping place, utilize an OBD II scan tool to access the ECU and identify the code responsible for triggering the light. Typically, a common cause for the light to come on is a vacuum leak due to a loose or faulty gas cap. In most cases, you will need to fix or replace the affected components in order to permanently extinguish the check engine light.

    Inspect the intake manifold runner valves, which can be found at the front of the engine. They are simple to replace and often fixing them is as easy as replacing the small vacuum hoses that may deteriorate over time. If you are unsure about the hose size, take it to a parts store, and they can help match the inner diameter for you.
