What does it mean when engine light is on but dash code reads done

Hi, this is Bo, an auto expert on RepairPal's Car Genius team! When your Patriot's engine light is on but the dash code reads "done," it's like your Jeep's saying, "I know something's up, but I won't tell you what." This usually means there is a stored trouble code, but the dash display method didn't pick it up. Sometimes, it's a little finicky with showing codes. Your best bet is to use an OBD-II scanner to pull the trouble codes directly from the vehicle’s computer. Many auto parts stores will do this for free. Once you have the code, you can pinpoint what’s tripping that engine light. If you need any further advice or if you'd like any help finding a trusted RepairPal shop in your area, please feel free to call us at 877-913-1554.
