The charging system warning lamp appears on the instrument cluster as a battery symbol. The charging system warning lamp turns on when both of the following conditions exist:

When the engine is running, the charging system warning lamp turns off if the charging system functions properly. A charging system malfunction is indicated when both of the following conditions exist:

The charging system warning lamp glows at full brilliance (not half-lit) for any of the following reasons:

The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL or SERVICE ENGINE SOON) should turn off when both of the following conditions exist:

The MIL should turn off between 1 to 5 seconds after the engine starts. If the lamp remains on or turns on during driving, service to the emission control system may be required.

The brake warning system consists of the following two lamps in the instrument cluster:

When the brake warning system finds ground through the pressure differential switch in the combination valve, the brake warning lamp indicates that a low fluid pressure condition exists in the brake system.

When the brake system finds ground through the parking brake switch, the brake warning lamp indicates that the parking brake is applied.

The ANTILOCK lamp indicates four wheel antilock system operation and malfunctions. A bulb inspection is performed every time the ignition switch is turned to the RUN position. The lamp should turn on and remain on for about 2 seconds.

The CHECK GAUGES lamp turns ON when either or both of the following conditions exist:

The CHECK GAUGES lamp driver monitors the following components:

The CHECK GAUGES lamp driver is part of the temperature gauge circuit board inside the instrument cluster. The CHECK GAUGES lamp driver controls the current to the CHECK GAUGES lamp.

Vehicles with automatic transmissions have an electronic Park Reverse Neutral Drive Low (PRNDL) range indicator. The system utilizes signals from the Neutral Safety Back Up (NSBU) switch on the side of the transmission. Signals from the switch determine which LEDs in the electronic PRNDL will light. Since the system is entirely electronic, no adjustment is necessary.

This vehicle has an enhanced seat belt warning system. The system activates a warning lamp for approximately 75 seconds and a buzzer for approximately 8 seconds when both of the following conditions exist:

The warning lamp remains constant for the first 20 seconds. The warning lamp then flashes for the remaining 55 seconds.

The buzzer only turns on and remains on when the driver's seat belt is not fastened during the 8 second time period.

Refer to the following lists for the warning lamp and buzzer sequence of operation:

Driver's Seat Belt Unbuckled

1. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position.
2. The warning lamp illuminates constantly for 20 seconds.
3. The warning lamp flashes for the remaining 55 seconds.
4. The buzzer turns on and remains on for 8 seconds.
5. The buzzer turns off after the 8 second time period.
6. If the driver's seat belt is buckled before the 8 second time period elapses, the following actions will occur:

•	The buzzer will turn off.

•	The lamp will remain on for the remainder of the time period.

Driver's Seat Belt Buckled

1. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position.
2. The warning lamp turns on.
3. The buzzer remains off.
4. The warning lamp turns off after 75 seconds.
5. If the driver's seat belt buckle is unbuckled before the 8 second time period elapses, the buzzer will turn on for the remainder of the 8 second time period.
