Powertrain Fault
Lights when the system detects
a powertrain or high-voltage
charge system fault. If the
indicator stays on or continues to come on,
contact an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
Note: If your vehicle detects certain faults,
it will not allow you to operate the
accelerator pedal. If this happens, press the
brake pedal and release it. This will activate
limp home vehicle operation. In limp home
vehicle operation, your vehicle will
accelerate in a controlled manner up to a
maximum speed of 35 mph (56 km/h) on
a flat surface. If you apply the brake pedal
or move the transmission to neutral (N) you
can override your vehicle’s acceleration.
Ready to Drive
Lights after you switch your
vehicle on and it is ready to drive.
A corresponding message may
display stating ready to drive.
Service Engine Soon
If it illuminates when the engine
is running this indicates a
malfunction. The On Board
Diagnostics system has detected a
malfunction of the vehicle emission control
system.
If it flashes, engine misfire may be
occurring. Increased exhaust gas
temperatures could damage the catalytic
converter or other vehicle components.
Drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy
acceleration and deceleration) and have
your vehicle immediately serviced.
It illuminates when you switch the ignition
on prior to engine start to check the bulb
and to indicate whether your vehicle is
ready for Inspection and Maintenance
(I/M) testing.
Normally, it illuminates until the engine is
cranked and automatically turns off if no
malfunctions are present. However, if after
15 seconds it flashes eight times, this
indicates that your vehicle is not ready for
Inspection and Maintenance (I/M) testing.
See Catalytic Converter (page 144).
Stability Control
It illuminates momentarily when
you switch the ignition on to
confirm that the lamp is
functional. If it does not illuminate when
you switch the ignition on or begins to flash
at any time, have the system checked as
soon as possible.
Lights when the system is active. If it
remains on or does not light when you
switch the ignition on, this indicates a
malfunction. During a malfunction, the
system will turn off. Have the system
checked as soon as possible. See Using
Stability Control (page 158).
Stability Control Off
Lights when you switch the
system off. It will go out when
you switch the system back on
or when you switch the ignition off. See
Using Stability Control (page 158).
Stop Safely
Indicates an electrical
component fault or failure that
will cause the vehicle to
shutdown or enter into a limited operating
mode. A message may also display.
