Find out what DTC (diagnostic troubleshooting code) has been logged, by connecting an appropriate scantool (supplier example only) to the vehicle's OBDII port
This is the quickest and surest way to find out what's causing the check engine light to come on.

it also could be a fuse
A check engine light indicates a problem with the engine operation.
I don't think a blown fuse will cause a check engine light to come on.
If it affected the operation of the engine you would notice it, hence the name "check engine".
It could be any number of things.
and the radio says engine fault the color of the light is orange
Here's an article showing all the DTCs (find your model) that will cause a CEL to come on.
You need the correct tools to be able to diagnose what's wrong.
The information is there, logged by the engine control module, you just have to access it using a scantool connected to the OBDII port.
There's no simple way around it unless there's an obvious problem, e.g coolant/fuel leaks, broken parts, smoke, runs rough etc
it drives fine and its from 2011
