Self-Diagnostic System: Notes

1995 Chevrolet Cavalier LS, 2D Convertible, 2.2 4, StandardSECTION Notes
NOTE: Powertrain Control Module (PCM) may also be referred to as Electronic Control Module (ECM) in some diagnostic charts and figures. Terms are used interchangeably.

Control module is equipped with a self-diagnostic system, which detects system failures or abnormalities. When a malfunction occurs, control module will store a numerical code and, in most cases, illuminate SERVICE ENGINE SOON light located on instrument panel. SERVICE ENGINE SOON light is also referred to as the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL). Malfunctions are recorded as hard failures or as intermittent failures.

NOTE: Models may have additional diagnostic information and procedures available; however, to fully utilize information and procedures requires the use of a Tech 1 scan tester. See tester owner's manual for additional information.
