5-18 Instruments and Controls
stalling when the vehicle is
changed into gear, misfiring,
hesitation on acceleration,
or stumbling on acceleration.
These conditions might go away
once the engine is warmed up.
If one or more of these conditions
occurs, change the fuel brand used.
It may require at least one full tank
of the proper fuel to turn the light off.
See Fuel on page 9-54.
If none of the above have made the
light turn off, your dealer can check
the vehicle. The dealer has the
proper test equipment and
diagnostic tools to fix any
mechanical or electrical problems
that might have developed.
Emissions Inspection and
Maintenance Programs
Depending on where you live, your
vehicle may be required to
participate in an emission control
system inspection and maintenance
program. For the inspection, the
emission system test equipment will
likely connect to the vehicle's Data
Link Connector (DLC).
The DLC is under the instrument
panel next to the steering wheel.
See your dealer if assistance is
needed.
The vehicle may not pass
inspection if:
The malfunction indicator lamp is
on while the engine is running,
or the malfunction indicator lamp
is not on while the vehicle is in
ON/RUN or Service Only Mode.
See your dealer for assistance in
verifying proper operation of the
malfunction indicator lamp.
Black plate (18,1)
The OBD II (On-Board
Diagnostics) system determines
that critical emission control
systems have not been
completely diagnosed by the
system. If this were to occur, the
vehicle would be considered not
ready for inspection. This can
happen if the 12-volt battery has
recently been replaced or
run down.
The diagnostic system is
designed to evaluate critical
emission control systems during
normal driving. This can take
several days of driving. If this
has been done and the vehicle
still does not pass the inspection
for lack of OBD II system
readiness, your dealer can
prepare the vehicle for
inspection.
