Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Nissan Pathfinder. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The MIL is located on the instrument panel.

  1. The MIL will light up when the ignition switch is turned ON without the engine running. This is a bulb check.
  2. When the engine is started, the MIL should go off.

    If the MIL remains on, the on board diagnostic system has detected an engine system malfunction. Refer to SELF-DIAGNOSTICS .
