2010 Ford Transit Connect Check Engine Light Codes

At Bill Estes Ford Brownsburg in Brownsburg, IN, we frequently decode the most common trouble codes for the 2010 Ford Transit Connect to help drivers understand urgency and cost. P0420 (catalyst system efficiency) can quickly escalate to costly catalytic converter replacement if ignored, so timely diagnostics preserve performance and save money over time. P0135 or P0141 (oxygen sensor/heater circuit) typically lead to poor fuel economy and increased emissions; replacing an O2 sensor early keeps fuel costs down and avoids harm to downstream components.
