Warning light What it means
INJECTION/EOBD SYSTEM FAILURE
If the warning light remains on, or it switches on whilst driving, the injection system is not working properly.
The warning light on constantlysignals a malfunction in the supply/ignition system which could cause
high exhaust emissions, a possible loss of performance, poor driveability and high consumption.
On some versions, the display shows the dedicated message.
The warning light switches off if the malfunction disappears, but it is still stored by the system.
Under these conditions, the vehicle can continue travelling at moderate speed but without demanding
excessive effort from the engine or high speed. Prolonged use of the vehicle with the warning light on
constantly may cause damage.
Contact a Jeep Dealership as soon as possible.
If the warning light flashes, it means that the catalytic converter may be damaged. Release the
accelerator pedal to lower the speed of the engine until the warning light stops flashing.
Continue the journey at moderate speed, trying to avoid driving conditions that may cause further flashing
and contact a Jeep Dealership as soon as possible.
