The ENGINE SYSTEM warning light indicates a malfunction in the engine control system. When functioning correctly, the light comes on when ignition is turned on and goes out when engine is started. If light fails to come on with ignition on or is on when engine is running, a service is indicated. A 2-digit trouble code will be stored in memory if a problem is detected. When problems causing trouble codes are repaired, the light should return to normal function.

When functioning correctly, the light comes on when ignition is turned on and goes out when engine is started. If light comes on while driving, a service is indicated. The battery charge could be drained if warning is ignored.
