If the Light Is Flashing
The following may prevent more serious damage
to your vehicle:
•
Reducing vehicle speed
•
Avoiding hard accelerations
•
Avoiding steep uphill grades
•
If you are towing a trailer, reduce the amount
of cargo being hauled as soon as it is possible
If the light stops flashing and remains on steady,
see "If the Light Is On Steady" following.
If the light continues to flash, when it is safe to do
so, stop the vehicle. Find a safe place to park
your vehicle. Turn the key off, wait at least
10 seconds and restart the engine. If the light
remains on steady, see "If the Light Is On Steady"
following. If the light is still flashing, follow the

soon as possible.

If the Light Is On Steady
You may be able to correct the emission system
malfunction by considering the following:
Did you recently put fuel into your vehicle?
If so, reinstall the fuel cap, making sure to fully
install the cap. See Filling the Tank on page 293.
The diagnostic system can determine if the
fuel cap has been left off or improperly installed.
A loose or missing fuel cap will allow fuel to
evaporate into the atmosphere. A few driving trips
with the cap properly installed should turn the
light off.
Did you just drive through a deep puddle of water?
If so, your electrical system may be wet. The
condition will usually be corrected when the
electrical system dries out. A few driving trips
should turn the light off.
