FORD 2005 GT - Manual (Page 10)

WARNING LIGHTS AND CHIMES
Warning lights and gauges can alert you to a vehicle condition that may
become serious enough to cause expensive repairs. A warning light may
illuminate when a problem exists with one of your vehicle’s functions.
Many lights will illuminate when you start your vehicle to make sure the
lights work. If any light remains on after starting the vehicle, have the
respective system inspected immediately.
Service engine soon: The Service
engine soon indicator light
illuminates when the ignition is first
turned to the ON position to check
the light function. Solid illumination after the engine is started indicates
the On Board Diagnostics System (OBD-II) has detected a malfunction.
Refer to On board diagnostics (OBD-II) in the Maintenance and
Specifications chapter. If the light is blinking, engine misfire is occurring
which could damage your catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate
fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and deceleration) and have your
vehicle serviced immediately.
Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures
could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel system, interior
floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.
Brake system warning light: To
confirm the brake system warning
light is functional, it will
momentarily illuminate when the
ignition is turned to the ON position
when the engine is not running or by applying the parking brake when
the ignition is turned to the ON position. If the brake system warning
light does not illuminate at this time, seek service immediately from your
dealership. Illumination after releasing the parking brake indicates low
brake fluid level and the brake system should be inspected immediately
by your servicing dealership.
