Malfunction Indicator Lamp
(Check Engine Light)
CHECK
A computer monitors
operation of your fuel,
ignition and emission
control systems. This amber
light should come on when
the ignition is turned on, but
the engine is not running, as
a check to show you it is
working.
If it does not come on at all, have
it fixed right away. If
it stays on, or comes on while you are driving, the
computer is indicating that you have a problem. You
should take your vehicle in for service soon.
If you keep driving your vehicle with this light
on, after a while the emission controls won't
work as well, your fuel economy won't be
as good
and your engine may not run as smoothly. This
could lead to costly repairs not covered by your
warranty.
