Malfunction Indicator lamp (MIL)






Malfunction Indicator lamp (MIL) is located on the combination meter.
MIL will illuminate when the ignition switch is turned ON without the engine running. This is a bulb check.
When the engine is started, MIL should turn OFF. If the MIL remains illuminated, the on board diagnostic system has detected an engine system malfunction.
For details, refer to "Diagnosis Description" On Board Diagnostic (OBD) System.
