The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) will blink if the Engine Control Module (ECM) recognizes misfire that could damage the
catalytic converters.
Notes:

On malfunction which could be caused by lack of fuel (e.g.: misfire) the malfunction P1250 "Fuel level too low" will be
displayed in addition. That means, the misfiring was detected due to lack of fuel in the tank and not due to a technical
malfunction.
