DESCRIPTION
The MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) is used to indicate vehicle malfunctions detected by the ECM.
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, power is supplied to the MIL circuit, and the ECM provides the circuit ground which illuminates the MIL.
The MIL operation can be checked visually. When the ignition switch is first turned to the ON position, the MIL should be illuminated and should then turn off. If the MIL remains illuminated or is not illuminated, conduct the following troubleshooting procedure using the intelligent tester.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 CHECK THAT MIL IS ILLUMINATED
Result

2 CHECK WHETHER MIL TURNS OFF
Standard: MIL goes off.
3 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CHECK FOR SHORT IN WIRE HARNESS)

OK: MIL is not illuminated.
4 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - ECM)

Standard resistance (Check for Open)

Standard resistance (Check for Short)

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - ECM)
5 CHECK THAT ENGINE STARTS
Result

HINT: *: The intelligent tester cannot communicate with the ECM.
6 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - BODY GROUND)

HINT:
By accessing the DATA LIST displayed by the intelligent
tester, you can perform such functions as reading the values
of switches and sensors without removing any parts. Reading
the DATA LIST as the first step in troubleshooting is one
method to shorten labor time.
