A warning light is a reason to find the fault, not swap parts by guesswork: a loose fuel cap, misfire or emissions problem can trigger it. For a used vehicle entering Nova Scotia that needs provincial registration, inspection is required within 30 days of entry and before registration, subject to exceptions and options. Diagnosis can help identify what needs attention, but it is not the inspection itself.
