Oil Pressure Indicator Light - Chevrolet 2003 Monte Carlo Owner's Manual

Ernisions Inspection and Maintenance
Programs
Some state/provincial and local governments have or
may begin programs to inspect the emission control
equipment on your vehicle. Failure to pass this
inspection could prevent you from getting a vehicle
registration.
Here are some things you need to know to help your
vehicle pass an inspection:
Your vehicle will not pass this inspection if the CHECK
ENGINE light is on or not working properly.
Your vehicle will not pass this inspection if the OED
(on-board diagnostic) system determines that critical
emission control systems have not been completely
diagnosed by the system. The vehicle would be
considered not ready for inspection. This can happen if
you have recently replaced your battery or if your
battery has run down. The diaqnostic svstem is
designed to evaluate critical emission control systems
during normal driving. This may take several days
of routine driving. If you have done this and your vehicle
still does not pass the inspection for lack of OBD
system readiness, see your dealer or qualified service
Oil Pressure Indicator Light

The oil pressure indicator
tells you if you have the
correct oil pressure in your
engine to operate your
vehicle.
Under normal conditions the indicator should read
slightly above the half way point.
If your oil pressure falls too low, the indicator will read
at the low setting in the red zone.
