Also, keep an eye on the water temperature gauge as it will be high if you are losing fluid.

A bad alternator might cause the check engine light to come on because the computer (PCM) doesn't get all the volts that it usually gets. When the check engine light comes on, it usually means that somewhere, a sensor has gone bad. Go to autozone and they will scan your computer for free.
