Chart A-1 - No Mil (Service Engine Soon Light): Notes

MIL should be on when engine is off and ignition is on. Switched battery voltage is supplied to MIL. The PCM turns light on by providing a ground path through the MIL (SERVICE ENGINE SOON) control circuit.

NOTE: Test numbers refer to numbers on diagnostic chart.
  1. If fusible link is blown, see WIRING DIAGRAMS  at the end of this article for complete circuit.
  2. Using a test light connected to 12 volts, probe each of the system ground circuits to ensure a good ground is present. See the PIN VOLTAGE CHART S article in this section.
