2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid Check Engine Light Codes
The 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid commonly registers codes related to oxygen sensors (P0130–P0167), catalytic efficiency (P0420), EV/Hybrid system alerts, and evaporative system leaks (P0440–P0455). In Draper, UT, Larry H. Miller Ford Lincoln Draper uses OEM-grade scanners to read these codes precisely and map them to reliable repair paths. Ignoring a P0420 code, for example, can increase emissions and reduce fuel efficiency—leading to costly catalytic converter replacement. An oxygen sensor failure reduces mpg and, over time, can damage the catalytic converter. EV/hybrid system warnings may indicate battery control or inverter concerns; postponing service risks accelerated battery wear or loss of hybrid assist, which is a more expensive repair. Our technicians explain each code, outline parts and labor costs, and show how addressing issues now prevents higher expenses later. We emphasize certified service, OEM components, and a detailed estimate so you see immediate savings from accurate diagnostics and long-term value from correct, warranty-backed repairs.
2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid Check Engine Light Reset
Resetting the check engine light on a 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid is simple, but resetting without diagnostics hides the true problem. At Larry H. Miller Ford Lincoln Draper we perform a full scan and repair before resetting codes so you don’t lose vital diagnostic information. Independent reset tools may clear the light temporarily, but only a factory-certified diagnostic uncovers hybrid-specific codes tied to battery management or emissions controls. We use OEM parts and service procedures, offer clear estimates, and document repairs—protecting warranties and vehicle resale value. In addition to reliable work, we provide service financing and frequent service specials to keep ownership costs low. For transparency, every reset comes with an explanation of the root cause, recommended repairs, and a timeline for return to service. To ensure a correct fix and avoid recurring warnings, schedule appointment with our certified techs today.
Check Engine Light Flashing
A flashing check engine light on a 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid signals a potentially serious condition—often a misfire that can damage the catalytic converter or indicate an urgent hybrid system fault.

Miller Ford Lincoln Draper prioritizes flashing-light cases and offers expedited diagnostics to limit additional damage and cost. We combine rapid triage with detailed testing, OEM replacement parts, and factory-trained technicians to restore safe operation quickly.
