On-Board Diagnostics monitors the components
of your emission control system. Each monitored
component in your engine system has been as
s igned a code . In case of a mal function, the com
ponent will be identified and the fault stored as a
code in the control module memory.
T he M IL light may also illuminate if there is a
leak in the on-board fuel vapor recove ry system.
If the light illuminates after a refuelling, stop the
vehicle and make sure the fuel filler cap is prop
