Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Nissan Quest. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. The malfunction indicator lamp will light up when the ignition switch is turned ON without the engine running. This is for checking the lamp.
  2. When the engine is started, the malfunction indicator lamp should go off.

    If the lamp remains on, the on board diagnostic system has detected an emission-related (OBD-II) malfunction. For details, Refer to "EMISSION-RELATED DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION ".
