Illuminates briefly to ensure the

system is functional. If it comes on

after the engine is started, one of

the engine’s emission control

systems may be malfunctioning. The light may illuminate without a

driveability concern being noted. The vehicle will usually be drivable and

will not require towing.

Light turns on solid:

Temporary malfunctions may cause the light to illuminate. Examples are:

1. The vehicle has run out of fuel.

2. Poor fuel quality or water in the fuel.

3. The fuel cap may not have been properly installed and securely

tightened.

These temporary malfunctions can be corrected by filling the fuel tank

with high quality fuel of the recommended octane and/or properly

installing and securely tightening the fuel cap. After three driving cycles

without these or any other temporary malfunctions present, the light

should turn off. (A driving cycle consists of a cold engine startup

followed by mixed city/highway driving.) No additional vehicle service is

required.

If the light remains on, have your vehicle serviced at the first available

opportunity.

Light is blinking:

Engine misfire is occurring which could damage your catalytic converter.

You should drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and

deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced at the first available

opportunity.

Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures

could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel system, interior

floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.
