A few driving trips with the cap
properly installed should turn the
light off.
.
For all engines, check that good
quality fuel is used. Poor fuel
quality causes the engine not to
run as efficiently as designed
and may cause stalling after
start-up, stalling when the
vehicle is changed into gear,
misfiring, hesitation on
acceleration, or stumbling on
acceleration. These conditions
might go away once the engine
is warmed up.
If one or more of these conditions
occurs, change the fuel brand used.
It may require at least one full tank
of the proper fuel to turn the light off.
See Recommended Fuel (Gasoline)
on page 9-56.
If none of the above have made
the light turn off, your dealer can
check the vehicle. The dealer has
the proper test equipment and
diagnostic tools to fix any
mechanical or electrical problems
that might have developed.
Emissions Inspection and
Maintenance Programs
Depending on where you live, your
vehicle may be required to
participate in an emission control
system inspection and maintenance
program. For the inspection, the
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 when the engine is running,
or while the vehicle is in ON/
RUN or in Service Only Mode
and the malfunction indicator
lamp does not come on. 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.
