Task

The indicator lamp alerts the driver to the reoccurrence of faults relevant to exhaust emissions.

Function

The ME-SFI control unit (N3/10) actuates the indicator lamp by transmitting an appropriate signal via the CAN data bus to the instrument cluster.

As a function check the indicator lamp is actuated at "Ignition ON". It goes out after engine start if there are no faults relevant to exhaust emissions.
