Is your car stuck in limp home mode?

If the limp home mode warning light has appeared, it’s essential to seek professional help promptly to address the issue and avoid further damage. Contact the team at Williams Technicians for fast and reliable assistance that ensures your vehicle is back on the road quickly and safely.

What is ‘limp home mode’ and how can you spot it?

Limp home mode is a safety feature that can be found in many modern vehicles. It's activated when the car’s computer or transmission control unit detects a significant fault. When this occurs, the vehicle will go into a restricted mode, allowing you to drive it short distances to a garage or mechanic without causing further damage.

Signs of limp home mode include:

● The limp home mode warning light appearing on your dashboard
● Limited engine power, restricting your speed and acceleration
● Non-essential systems such as air conditioning being disabled
● The vehicle driving at a much slower pace than usual

This precautionary measure makes sure that you can reach professional help safely, but it's vital not to ignore the warning. Continuing to drive in limp mode can worsen the problem and cause more damage.
