2019 Honda Insight Check Engine Light Codes

At Larry H. Miller Honda Boise we frequently service the 2019 Honda Insight and see a handful of common codes: P0442 (EVAP small leak), P0420 (catalyst efficiency low), P0171 (system too lean), and ignition misfire codes like P0300. Left unaddressed, an EVAP leak can cause failed emissions tests and poor fuel economy, P0420 can mean reduced engine performance and ultimately an expensive catalytic converter replacement, and misfires risk internal engine damage if you continue driving. Our factory-trained technicians use Honda-specific tools to read code history, perform pressure and sensor tests, and provide a clear estimate before any work begins. Choosing Larry H. Miller Honda Boise means OEM parts, certified service, and documented repairs that protect your warranty and resale value.
