Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2013 GMC Yukon XL, 2013 GMC Yukon, 2013 Chevrolet Suburban, 2013 Chevrolet Avalanche, and 2013 Cadillac Escalade EXT. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) illuminates to inform the driver that an emission system fault has occurred and the engine control system requires service. Ignition voltage is supplied directly to the MIL. The engine control module (ECM) turns the MIL ON by grounding the MIL control circuit when the emission system fault occurs. Under normal operating conditions, the MIL should be ON only when the ignition is ON and the engine is OFF.
