Enabling Criteria<br />
The exact operating conditions are needed before a test can run. These are provided<br />
by a trip.<br />
DTC<br />
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is commonly referred to as a fault code. A<br />
DTC is stored in memory when a fault is detected that can result in excessive emissions.<br />
MIL Operation<br />
The OBD II Malfunction Indication Lamp (MIL) illuminates<br />
when a DTC is stored. The MIL will stay on unless:<br />
1. DTCs are erased by a command from the scan tool.<br />
2. Power is removed from the PCM or the PCM is disconnected.<br />
3. The PCM turns the MIL off. The PCM will shut off the MIL if the monitor that set<br />
the DTC runs and passes on three consecutive trips.<br />
