INT LAMP : CONSULT Function (BCM - INT LAMP)INFOID:0000000009956798
CAUTION:
After disconnecting the CONSULT vehicle interface (VI) from the data link connector, the ignition must
be cycled OFF → ON (for at least 5 seconds) → OFF. If this step is not performed, the BCM may not go
to ”sleep mode”, potentially causing a di scharged battery and a no-start condition.

ENGINE OIL
InspectionINFOID:0000000009461028
OIL LEVEL
• Before starting the engine, check the oil level. If t
he engine is already started, stop it and allow 10 minutes
before checking.
• Check that the oil level is within the range (A) on the oil level
gauge.
• If it is out of range, add oil as necessary.
ENGINE OIL APPEARANCE
• Check engine oil for white milky appearance or excessive contamination.
• If engine oil becomes milky, it is highly probable t hat it is contaminated with engine coolant. Repair or
replace damaged parts.
OIL LEAKAGE
Check for oil leakage around the following areas:
•Oil pan
• Oil pan drain plug
• Oil pressure switch
• Oil filter
• Oil cooler
• Valve timing control cover and valve timing control solenoid valve
• Front cover
• Mating surface between cylinder block and cylinder head
• Mating surface between cylinder head and rocker cover
• Crankshaft oil seal (front and rear)
OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WARNING:
• Be careful not to burn yoursel f, as engine oil may be hot.
• Put the CVT shift selector in the Park "P" position.
1. Check engine oil level. Refer to OIL LEVEL.
2. Remove fender protector side cover (RH). Refer to EXT-26, "FENDER PROTECTOR : Exploded View"
.
3. Disconnect oil pressure switch harness connector at oil pressure switch. Remove oil pressure switch and install Tools.
CAUTION:
Do not drop or shock oil pressure switch.
4. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
5. Check oil pressure with engine running under no-load, using Tool. NOTE:
