16.Malfunction Indicator Light
A: PROCEDURE
B: ACTIVATION OF MALFUNCTION
INDICATOR LIGHT
1) When the ignition switch is turned to ON (engine
off), the malfunction indicator light (1) in the combi-
nation meter illuminates.
NOTE:
If the malfunction indicator light does not illuminate,
perform the diagnosis of malfunction indicator light
circuit or the combination meter circuit. EN(H4SO)-49, MALFUNCTION INDICATOR
LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON, Malfunction Indica-
tor Light.>2) After starting the engine, the malfunction indica-
tor light goes out. If it does not, either the engine or
the emission control system is malfunctioning.
