5-16 Instruments and Controls
emission system test equipment will
likely connect to the vehicle's Data
Link Connector (DLC).
The DLC is under the instrument
panel next to the steering wheel.
See your dealer if assistance is
needed.
The vehicle may not pass
inspection if:
.The malfunction indicator lamp is
on while the engine is running,
or the malfunction indicator lamp
is not on while the vehicle is in
ON/RUN or Service Only Mode.
See your dealer for assistance in
verifying proper operation of the
malfunction indicator lamp.
.The OBD II (On-Board
Diagnostics) system determines
that critical emission control
systems have not been
completely diagnosed by the
system. If this were to occur, the
vehicle would be considered not
ready for inspection. This can
happen if the 12-volt battery has
recently been replaced or
run down.
The diagnostic system is
designed to evaluate critical
emission control systems during
normal driving. This can take
several days of driving. If this
has been done and the vehicle
still does not pass the inspection
for lack of OBD II system
readiness, your dealer can
prepare the vehicle for
inspection.Brake System Warning
Light
The vehicle brake system consists
of two hydraulic circuits. If one
circuit is not working, the remaining
circuit can still work to stop the
vehicle. For normal braking
performance, both circuits need to
be working.
The brake system warning light will
come on with the electric parking
brake light when the electric parking
brake is applied. Both lights will stay
on until the electric parking brake is
released.
The brake system warning light will
also come on when there is a brake
problem.
If the warning light stays on when
the electric parking brake is not
applied, have the vehicle inspected
by your dealer right away.
