Chart A-1 - No Check Engine Light: Notes
There should always be a steady CHECK ENGINE light when ignition is on and engine stopped. Electronic Control Module (ECM) will also turn on light if ECM senses a malfunction or ECM fails.
NOTE:
Test numbers refer to numbers on diagnostic chart.
- Test light provides a ground source to CHECK ENGINE light. If circuit is okay, CHECK ENGINE light should be on when circuit No. A5 is probed.
- Battery voltage at circuits No. B1 and C16 is protected by a 30-amp fusible link in relay center under hood near battery. If circuits No. B1 and C16 have voltage, ECM grounds or ECM are faulty.
- Using a test light connected to 12 volts, probe each system ground circuit to ensure a good ground is present.
