Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Saturn LW300 and 2003 Saturn L300. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Battery positive voltage is supplied directly to the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL). The Engine Control Module (ECM) turns the MIL ON by grounding the MIL control circuit. There should be a steady MIL with the ignition ON and the engine OFF.
