How the Circuit Works
The maintenance reminder light comes on to
remind the driver that the car is due for
scheduled mainlenance.
The maintenance reminder unit receives a vehicle
speed input from the vehicle speed sensor (VSS)
and uses this inlormation to compute the distance
traveled. For the first 6000 t 1 00 miles (9650 t 160
km) after the maintenance reminder light is reset, it
will come on for two seconds when you turn the
ignition switch to ON (ll) as a bulb check.
Between 6000 1 100 miles (9650 t 160 km) and
7500 t 100 miles (12070 I 160 km) the reminder
light will come on for two seconds when you turn
the ignition switch to ON (ll), and then flash for eight
seconds more.
Beyond 7500 t 100 miles (12070 t l60 km) the
reminder light will stay on when the ignition switch is
in the ON (ll) position until the unit is reset.
To reset the unit, the car must be parked and the
ignition switch in the ON (ll) position. Press the
reset button on the unit and hold it there for more
than three seconds, and the reminder light will
go off.
