illuminate.
2.While the alarm light is on, connect the scan tool or a volt- meter to the data link connector of the wiring harness and
check the on-board diagnostic output code.
3. Use the output pattern for troubleshooting (Refer to
P.33B-11.)
NOTE*
Although the alarm light illuminates under the following
circumstances, there is no actual malfunction if, after the
following procedures have been followed and then the
alarm light does not illuminate after waiting about four
minutes or more.
