Check Engine Light Flashing

The sight of a flashing check engine light in your 2017 Ford Shelby GT350 indicates an active misfire or a condition that could cause immediate damage to the catalytic converter or other driveline components. A flashing light requires prompt attention: our team at Coggin Ford Jacksonville will prioritize your vehicle and perform a live-data road or shop test to capture misfire events, inspect ignition coils, spark plugs, fuel delivery, and battery/charging health. Ignoring a flashing light can multiply repair costs—what might start as an ignition coil or spark plug replacement can escalate to cylinder head, catalytic converter, or ECU issues if left untreated. At our Jacksonville facility we use OEM parts, factory diagnostic equipment, and Ford-certified technicians to ensure the repair is correct the first time, which reduces long-term ownership costs. We offer flexible service financing so you can address urgent repairs without delay, and our Service Advisors will present transparent pricing and timeline options. To protect performance and avoid escalating expenses, schedule service online now or review current service specials before you come in — act quickly to keep your Shelby GT350 performing at its best.

2017 Ford Shelby GT350 Check Engine Light Codes

Common check engine light codes seen on a 2017 Ford Shelby GT350 include misfire codes (P0300–P0308), oxygen sensor faults (P0130–P0167 range), catalytic converter efficiency (P0420), and EVAP system faults. Misfires can lead to poor performance, reduced fuel economy, and severe damage to the catalytic converter if unaddressed; resolving them promptly at Coggin Ford Jacksonville limits long-term parts and labor costs. Oxygen sensor failures lower fuel efficiency and allow rich or lean conditions that stress engine components. An unresolved P0420 can mean a failing converter, which is an expensive repair — early diagnosis often avoids collateral damage. Our dealership approach: we scan, interpret live-data, and recommend OEM replacements only when necessary, emphasizing transparency and immediate plus long-term savings. Repairs performed under warranty must be completed at a certified dealership to remain valid, and our factory-trained technicians follow Ford procedures to preserve warranty and vehicle value. For convenience, we provide online scheduling and service financing, and you can view our current service specials to reduce out-of-pocket cost. Choose Coggin Ford Jacksonville for accurate codes, efficient repairs, and a customer-focused experience that minimizes future expense and downtime.
