Malfunction Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) Location
PURPOSE
The malfunction indicator light (MIL), located in the instrument panel, will come on to warn the driver if a malfunction occurs in the following circuits:
-
ECU
-
Oxygen sensor
-
Air-flow sensor
-
Intake air temperature sensor
-
Throttle position sensor
-
Engine coolant temperature sensor
-
Crankshaft Position sensor
-
Camshaft Position (TDC) sensor
-
Barometric pressure sensor
-
Ignition Timing Adjustment Signal
-
Injector
-
EGR (California only)
-
Fuel Pump
OPERATION
The ECU stores a code for the fault. Immediately after the ignition switch is turned on, the MIL will light for 2.5 seconds to indicate that the light
operates normally. When an irregular signal returns to normal the MIL goes out. Also, when the ignition switch is turned off, the light goes out. If the
engine is re-started the light will not come back on until the fault re-occurs, but a code will be stored in the ECU memory.
