LIGHTING SYSTEMWhen the message appears after starting the engine, or 
if it comes on while driving, this indicates a failure in 
the parking lamp, taillamp, stop lamp, or low beam 
headlamp. See page 275 for instructions on replacing 
bulbs.
If an exterior lamp fails, the message will appear only 
when that lamp is switched on.
If a brake lamp fails, the message will appear when 
applying the brake and stays on until the engine is 
turned off.
Note:
If additional lighting is installed (e.g. auxiliary 
headlamps etc.) be certain to connect into the fuse 
before the failure indicator monitoring unit order to 
avoid damaging the system.
