Instrument Panel Indicators
Turn Signal and
Hazard Warning
Indicators
The left or right turn signal indicator
blinks when you signal a lane change
or turn. If an indicator does not blink
or blinks rapidly, it usually means
one of the turn signal bulbs is
burned out (see pages 256 and
Replace the bulb as soon as possible,
since other drivers cannot see that
you are signaling.
When you press the hazard warning
button, both turn signal indicators
and all turn signals on the outside of
the vehicle flash.

Door and Tailgate Open Monitor
257 ). This monitor includes two functions;
the door open indicator and the
tailgate open indicator. This monitor
works with the ignition switch in any
position.
The specific door indicator comes on
in this monitor if any door is not
closed tightly.
The tailgate indicator comes on
when the tailgate is swung open or if
it is not closed completely after you
swing it closed.
If the tailgate is swung open or is not
closed tightly, you will hear six beeps
and see the indicator blinking when
you turn the ignition switch to the
ON (II) position. The beeper also
sounds and the indicator blinks when
you move the shift lever out of the
Park or neutral position.
The tailgate open indicator does not
monitor the tailgate when it is
dropped open.
If the driver does not fasten the seat
belt and the tailgate is swung open,
the seat belt reminder alarm will
sound at first, then the tailgate open
reminder beeper will sound.
For more information on the tailgate,
see page 94 .
