Check Engine Light Flashing
A flashing check engine light in your 2016 Ford Mustang EcoBoost often indicates a severe condition such as an active misfire that can damage the catalytic converter or affect turbocharger health. When the light flashes, immediate attention reduces the risk of long-term engine or emissions system damage. At Larry H. Miller Ford Lincoln Draper in Draper, UT, we prioritize safety and speed: our certified Ford technicians use factory-grade tools to capture live misfire counts, fuel trim data, and turbocharger boost behavior to diagnose and correct the issue accurately. We also inspect related systems — ignition coils, spark plugs, fuel delivery, and sensors — to deliver a complete repair plan.
Choosing our dealership means choosing OEM parts, trained technicians, and documented repairs that protect warranty coverage and resale value. We frequently run targeted service specials to lower out-of-pocket costs and offer service financing so you can get repairs done now and pay over time.

Schedule service online to reserve a diagnostic slot and get back on the road with confidence.
2016 Ford Mustang EcoBoost Check Engine Light Codes
Common codes on a 2016 Ford Mustang EcoBoost include P0300–P0304 (misfires), P0420 (catalyst efficiency), P0171/P0174 (fuel system lean), and turbo-related sensor codes.

Our certified technicians use OEM diagnostic procedures so you avoid unnecessary parts swaps, and our documented repairs help maintain factory warranties and vehicle value. For convenience, you can schedule appointment online and view current service specials to reduce costs.
