CHECKING FOR TROUBLE CODES 4.3<br />

CHECK ENGINE LAMP<br />

To diagno<strong>se</strong> system problems, start by ob<strong>se</strong>rving the behavior<br />

of the <strong>check</strong> engine lamp.<br />

●<br />

●<br />

NOTE<br />

See Figure 4-3. “Key ON” means that the ignition key is<br />

turned to ON and the engine stop switch is <strong>se</strong>t to RUN<br />

(although the engine is not running).<br />

When the ignition switch is turned ON, the <strong>check</strong> engine<br />

lamp will illuminate for approximately four <strong>se</strong>conds and<br />

then turn off.<br />

If the <strong>check</strong> engine lamp is not illuminated at key ON or if<br />

it fails to turn OFF after the ititial four <strong>se</strong>cond period, then<br />

<strong>se</strong>e 4.5 SPEEDOMETER SELF DIAGNOSTICS.<br />

If the <strong>check</strong> engine lamp comes on late (after 20 <strong>se</strong>conds),<br />

the problem is likely a <strong>se</strong>rial data bus failure. Test<br />

for codes using speedometer <strong>se</strong>lf <strong>diagnostic</strong>s. See 4.5<br />

SPEEDOMETER SELF DIAGNOSTICS.<br />

If the <strong>check</strong> engine lamp fails to turn OFF after the <strong>initial</strong><br />

four <strong>se</strong>cond period, then a problem exists in the instrumentation.<br />

See 4.5 SPEEDOMETER SELF DIAGNOS-<br />

TICS.<br />

1. When the lamp turns off after being illuminated for the<br />

first four <strong>se</strong>cond period, it will:<br />

a. Remain off if there are no fault conditions or trouble<br />

codes currently detected by the ignition control module.<br />

See A of Figure 4-4.<br />

b. Come back on for an 8 <strong>se</strong>cond period if only historic<br />

codes exist. See B of Figure 4-4.<br />

Figure 4-3. Ignition Switch (FLHT/C)<br />

f1240x2x<br />

c. Come back on, and remain on, if a current trouble<br />

code exists. See C of Figure 4-4.<br />

2. See CODE TYPES which follows for a complete description<br />

of trouble code formats.<br />

NOTE<br />

Trouble codes relating to the ignition coil can only be fully<br />

diagno<strong>se</strong>d during actuation. For example, a problem with the<br />

ignition coil will be considered a current fault even after the<br />

problem is corrected, since the ignition control module will not<br />

know of its resolution until after the coil is exerci<strong>se</strong>d by vehicle<br />

start <strong>se</strong>quence. In this manner, there may sometimes be a<br />

fal<strong>se</strong> indication of the current trouble code.<br />
