WARNING LIGHTS AND CHIMES

Check engine

Your vehicle is equipped with a

computer that monitors the engine’s

emission control system. This

system is commonly known as the

On Board Diagnostics System

(OBD II). This OBD II system protects the environment by ensuring that

your vehicle continues to meet government emission standards. The OBD

II system also assists the service technician in properly servicing your

vehicle.

The Check Engine indicator light illuminates when the ignition is first

turned to the ON position to check the bulb. If it comes on after the

engine is started, one of the engine’s emission control systems may be

malfunctioning. The light may illuminate without a driveability concern

being noted. The vehicle will usually be drivable and will not require

towing.

What you should do if the check engine light illuminates

Light turns on solid:

This means that the OBD II system has detected a malfunction.

Temporary malfunctions may cause your Check Engine light to

illuminate. Examples are:

1. The vehicle has run out of fuel. (The engine may misfire or run

poorly.)

2. Poor fuel quality or water in the fuel.

3. The fuel cap may not have been properly installed and securely

tightened.

These temporary malfunctions can be corrected by filling the fuel tank

with good quality fuel and/or properly installing and securely tightening

the gas cap. After three driving cycles without these or any other

temporary malfunctions present, the Check Engine light should turn off.

(A driving cycle consists of a cold engine startup followed by mixed

city/highway driving.) No additional vehicle service is required.

If the Check Engine light remains on, have your vehicle serviced at the

first available opportunity.

Light is blinking:

Engine misfire is occurring which could damage your catalytic converter.

You should drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and

deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced at the first available

opportunity.

Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures

could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel system, interior

floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.

turned to the ON position and the

fuel pump shut-off switch has been

triggered. For more information,

refer to Fuel pump shut-off switch

in the Roadside emergencies chapter.

chapter.

Brake system warning

Momentarily illuminates when the

ignition is turned to the ON position

and the engine is off. If the brake

warning lamp does not illuminate at

this time, seek service immediately.

Also illuminates when the parking brake is engaged. Illumination after

releasing the parking brake indicates low brake fluid level and the brake

system should be inspected immediately.

Anti-lock brake system (ABS)

Momentarily illuminates when the

ignition is turned to the ON position

and the engine is off. If the light

remains on, continues to flash or

fails to illuminate, have the system

serviced immediately. With the ABS light on, the anti-lock brake system

is disabled and normal braking is still effective unless the brake warning

light also remains illuminated with parking brake released.

Turn signal

Illuminates when the left or right

turn signal or the hazard lights are

turned on. If one or both of the

indicators stay on continuously or

flash faster, check for a burned-out

turn signal bulb. Refer to Exterior bulbs in the Maintenance and care

chapter.

turned to the ON position and the

engine is off. The light also

illuminates when the battery is not

charging properly, requiring

electrical system service.

Check gage

Illuminates when the engine coolant

temperature is high, the engine oil

pressure is low or the fuel gauge is

at or near empty. The ignition must

be in the ON position for this lamp to illuminate. The lamp will also

illuminate for several seconds after the ignition is turned to the ON

position. Refer to Engine coolant temperature gauge, Engine oil

pressure gauge or Fuel gauge in this chapter for more information.

Four wheel drive low (if equipped)

This light momentarily illuminates

when the ignition is turned to ON.

low is engaged. If the light continues

to flash have the system serviced.
