Malfunction Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation
COMPONENT PARTS
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The MIL is located on the combination meter.
The MIL will illuminate when the ignition switch is turned ON without the engine running. This is a bulb check.
When the engine is started, the MIL should turn OFF. If MIL remains
ON or continues blinking, the on board diagnostic system detects a
DTC(s) that affects exhaust gas.
