MALFUNCTION INDICATOR (CHECK ENGINE)
LAMP
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) provides
ground for the malfunction indicator (Check Engine)
lamp on circuit G3. Circuit G3 connects to cavity 32
of the PCM. Circuit G5 connects to the instrument
cluster and supplies battery voltage for the malfunc-
tion indicator lamp. When illuminated, the malfunc-
tion indicator lamp displays the message CHECK
ENGINE.
For information regarding diagnostic trouble code
access using the malfunction indicator lamp, refer to
Group 14, Fuel Systems.
UP-SHIFT LAMP
On vehicles equipped with a manual transmission,
the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) provides
ground for the Up-Shift lamp on circuit K54. Circuit
G5 provides battery voltage for the lamp.
ABS WARNING LAMP
Circuit G5 provides power for the ABS warning
lamp at the instrument cluster. Ground for the ABS
warning lamp is provided by either the ABS control
module or by the ABS power relay when the relay is
not energized. The ABS control module illuminates
the lamp by providing ground on circuit G19.
Circuit G19 splices to connect to circuit B15
through a diode. When the ABS power relay is not
energized, it connects circuit B15 to circuit Z12. The
ground path for the warning lamp is provided
through the diode to circuit B15, through the ABS
power relay to ground on circuit Z12.
The diode between circuit G19 and B15 prevents
voltage from flowing to the ABS control module when
the ABS power relay switches to supply power on cir-
cuit B15.
BRAKE WARNING LAMP
Circuit G5 provides battery voltage for the brake
warning lamp. Circuit G11 can provide ground for
the lamp in 3 ways. The first ground path is through
the ignition switch when the key is in the START po-
sition.
The second ground path for the brake warning
lamp on circuit G11 is through the case grounded
brake warning switch. When the switch closes it pro-
vides a ground.
The third ground path on circuit G11 is through
the case grounded park brake switch. When the
switch closes it provides ground.
HIGH BEAM INDICATOR LAMP
Circuit G34 supplies power for the high-beam indi-
cator lamp when the operator either flashes the opti-
cal horn (high beams) or selects high beam operation.
Circuit Z1 provides the ground path for the lamp.
Circuit L3 from the headlamp switch powers the
high beam circuits of the headlamps. On vehicles not
equipped with Daytime Running Lamps (DRL), cir-
cuit G34 double crimps to circuit L3 at the bulkhead
connector.
On vehicles equipped with DRL, circuit L3 splices
to the DRL module. The DRL module powers circuit
G34.
TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR LAMPS
Circuit L61 supplies battery voltage to the left turn
signal indicator lamp. The right turn signal indicator
lamp receives battery voltage from circuit L60. The
turn signal/hazard flasher switch powers circuits L60
and L61. Circuit Z1 provides ground for the lamps.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²If the warning lamps, gauges and indicator lamps
don't operate, check fuse 4 in the PDC and fuse 9 in
the fuse block.
²If the illumination lamps don't operate, check fuse
10 in the fuse block.

When the park lamp relay energizes, the relay con-
tacts close and connect circuit F81 from fuse 6 in the
fuse block to circuit L36. Circuit L36 connects to the
contact side of the high beam relay. The contacts in
the high beam relay are normally closed. Battery
voltage flows through high beam relay to the fog
lamps on circuit L39. Circuit L39 also splices to the
lamp in the fog lamp switch.
Circuit L3 from the dimmer switch provides power
for the high beams of the headlamps and connects to
Circuit G34. Circuit G34 powers the coil side of the
high beam relay. Circuit Z1 provides ground for the
coil. When the operator selects high beam operation
or flashes the optical horn, circuit G34 energizes the
high beam relay. When energized, the normally
closed contacts in the relay open, shutting off battery
voltage to the fog lamps on circuit L39.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²Circuit A6 from fuse 3 in the PDC supplies voltage
to the fuse block for fuses in cavities 3 and 6. Fuse 6
in the fuse block protects circuit F81 which powers
the contact side of the park lamp relay.
²In the high beam position, the dimmer switch con-
nects circuit L20 from the headlamp switch to circuit
L3. The headlamp switch connects circuit A3 from
fuse 7 in the PDC with circuit L20. Circuits A3 and
L20 are HOT at all times.
DAYTIME RUNNING LAMP (DRL) MODULEÐ
CANADIAN VEHICLES ONLY
On Canadian vehicles, the low-beam headlamps op-
erate when the ignition switch is in the RUN position
and the headlamp switch is OFF.
When the ignition switch is in the START or RUN
positions, circuit A1 from fuse 4 in the Power Distri-
bution Center (PDC) connects to circuit A21. Circuit
A21 supplies voltage to circuit G5 through fuse 9 in
the fuse block. Circuit G5 splices to supply battery
voltage to the DRL module.
Circuit L20 from the headlamp switch connects to
the DRL module. Circuit L20 is HOT at all times.
The DRL module receives the vehicle speed sensor
input from circuit G7. Circuit G34 from the DRLmodule provides power for the high beam indicator
lamp in the instrument cluster.
Circuit L4 feeds the low beams of the headlamps.
When the headlamp switch is in the OFF position,
the DRL module powers the left and right headlamps
on circuit L4. When the headlamps are ON, the dim-
mer switch powers the low beams on circuit L4.
Circuit L3 feeds the high beams of the headlamps.
When the operator flashes the high beams with the
turn signal stalk, the DRL senses voltage on circuit
L3. When it senses voltage on circuit L3, the DRL
module stops supplying power to the low beams on
circuit L4.
Circuit Z1 provides ground for the DRL module.
Circuit Z1 terminates at the radiator left side sup-
port.

vacuum hose from engine cylinder head cover (Fig.
1).
(3) Disconnect the fresh air inlet hose from the en-
gine cylinder head cover (Fig. 1).
(4) Remove the engine cylinder head cover mount-

CLEANING
Remove any original sealer from the cover sealing
surface of the engine cylinder head and clean the
surface using a fabric cleaner.
Remove all residue from the sealing surface using
a clean, dry cloth.
INSPECTION
Inspect the engine cylinder head cover for cracks.
Replace the cover, if cracked.
The original dark grey gasket material should NOT
be removed. If sections of the gasket material are
missing or are compressed, replace the engine cylin-
der head cover. However, sections with minor damage
such as small cracks, cuts or chips may be repaired
with a hand held applicator. The new material must
be smoothed over to maintain gasket height. Allow
the gasket material to cure prior to engine cylinder
head cover installation.
INSTALLATION
(1) If a replacement cover is installed, transfer the
CCV valve grommet the oil filler cap from the origi-
nal cover to the replacement cover.
(2) Install engine cylinder head cover. Tighten the
mounting bolts to 10 Nzm (85 in. lbs.) torque.
