Voltmeter
If the voltage drops to the L (low) range when the
engine is running, the generator has stopped charging.
Have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible.
Do Not Shift Warning Light
2-54
When your engine is
running, the voltmeter gage,
at the lower left of the
instrument cluster, shows
the charging system voltage.
If your vehicle has the
Allison MD automatic
transmission, certain
transmission malfunctions
will turn this light on.
If this light comes on while you are driving, do not use
the transmission shift control. Using the transmission
shift control will result in the loss of forward gears. The
computer for the transmission senses a problem and
chooses a gear to stay in so that you can drive the
vehicle in that gear. You may not be able to drive as fast
or back up when this light is on.
NOTICE:
If the DO NOT SHIFT warning light comes on
while you are driving, it is a warning that making
a transmission "range" change could leave you
stranded. The vehicle may not continue to move
if you change gears with the transmission shift
control. The transmission can't operate in all
gears because something is wrong. Leave the shift
control alone and drive directly to a GM dealer
for service. If you can't go in for service
immediately, have the vehicle towed.
