On these models, if you turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position, without starting the engine, the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) (A) will come on for about 20 seconds. It then goes off or brinks 5 times under various conditions. This is normal: it shows the self-testing condition of the diagnostics for the emissions control systems.

If the MIL in the gauge assembly will come on or the PGM-FI (B) in the information display will on, go to how to use the HDS.
