Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Using Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
Locate 2-pin service check connector behind glove box. Connect SCS Service Connector (07PAZ-0010100 ) to 2-pin service check connector. See Figure. Turn ignition on. Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) will be indicated by a series of long and short flashes on MIL. The number of long flashes indicates number in tens column. The number of short flashes indicates number in ones column. For example, 4 long flashes followed by 3 short flashes would indicate DTC 43. See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE IDENTIFICATION and proceed to appropriate DTC testing.
