4. Turn Signal Indicators

The arrow will flash with the exterior turn

signal when the turn signal lever is operated.

NOTE:

• A continuous chime will sound if the vehicle is

driven more than 1 mile (1.6 km) with either turn

signal on.

• Check for an inoperative outside light bulb if either

indicator remains on and does not flash, or flashes at

a rapid rate.

5. Voltmeter

When the engine is running, the gauge indicates

the electrical system voltage. The pointer should

stay within the normal range if the battery is charged. If

the pointer moves to either extreme left or right and

remains there during normal driving, the electrical sys-

tem should be serviced.

NOTE:

The voltmeter may show a gauge fluctuation at

various engine temperatures. This cycling operation is

caused by the post-heat cycle of the intake manifold

heater system. The number of cycles and the length of the

cycling operation is controlled by the engine control

module. Post-heat operation can run for several minutes,

and then the electrical system and voltmeter needle will

stabilize.
6. Brake Warning Light

This light monitors various brake functions,

including brake fluid level and parking brake

application. If the brake light turns on it may

indicate that the parking brake is applied, that

the brake fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with

the Anti-lock Brake System reservoir.
If the light remains on when the parking brake has been

disengaged, and the fluid level is at the full mark on the

master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake
