Light is blinking:
Engine misfire is occurring which could damage your catalytic converter.
You should drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and
deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced at the first available
opportunity.
Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures
could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel system, interior
floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.
The Transmission Control Indicator
Light (TCIL), which is located on
the gearshift lever (the word OFF),
may flash steadily if a transmission
malfunction has been detected. It
the TCIL is flashing, contact your Ford dealer as soon as possible. If this
condition persists, damage to the transmission may occur.
Anti-lock brake system (ABS) (if equipped)
Momentarily illuminates when the
ignition is turned to the ON position
to ensure the circuit is functional. If
the light remains on after the
vehicle is started, continues to flash
or fails to illuminate, have the system serviced immediately. With the
ABS light on, the anti-lock brake system is disabled and normal braking
is still effective unless the brake warning light also remains illuminated.
Door ajar (if equipped)
Illuminates when the ignition switch
is in the ON or START position and
any door is open.
