DESCRIPTION
The MIL is used to inform the user when the ECM has detected a vehicle malfunction.
By turning the ignition switch to ON, power is supplied to the MIL circuit and the ECM provides the circuit ground that illuminates the MIL.
Operation of the MIL should be checked visually: When the ignition switch is first turned to ON, the MIL should illuminate. When the engine is started, the MIL should turn off.
