and increase vehicle
emissions. Diagnosis and
service may be required.
To help prevent damage,
reduce vehicle speed and
avoid hard accelerations and
uphill grades. If towing a
trailer, reduce the amount of
cargo being hauled as soon as
possible.
If the light continues to flash,
find a safe place to park. Turn
the vehicle off and wait at
least 10 seconds before
restarting the engine. If the
light is still flashing, follow the
previous guidelines and see
your dealer for service as
soon as possible.
If the light is on steady :A
malfunction has been
detected. Diagnosis and
service may be required.
Check the following:
.If fuel has been added to the
vehicle using the capless fuel
funnel adapter, make sure
that it has been removed. See
“Filling the Tank with a
Portable Gas Can” under
Filling the Tank 0362. The
diagnostic system can
detect if the adapter has
been left installed in the
vehicle, allowing fuel to
evaporate into the
atmosphere. A few driving
trips with the adapter
removed may turn off the
light.
.Poor fuel quality can cause
inefficient engine operation
and poor driveability, which
may go away once the
engine is warmed up. If this
occurs, change the fuel
brand. It may require at least
one full tank of the proper
fuel to turn the light off. See
Recommended Fuel (LSY
2.0L L4 Engine) 0360 or
Recommended Fuel (LGY
3.0L V6 and LT4 6.2L
V8 Engines) 0361.
If the light remains on, see
your dealer.
Emissions Inspection and
Maintenance Programs
If the vehicle requires an
Emissions Inspection/
Maintenance test, the test
equipment will likely connect
to the vehicle's Data Link
Connector (DLC).
The DLC is under the
instrument panel to the left of
the steering wheel.
Connecting devices that are
not used to perform an
Emissions Inspection/
Maintenance test or to service
the vehicle may affect vehicle
operation. See Add-On
Electrical Equipment 0372.
See your dealer if assistance
is needed.

If both the ABS warning light
and the brake system warning
light are on, ABS is not
functioning and there is a
problem with the regular
brakes. See your dealer for
service.

Light0127.
Performance Shifting
Light
If equipped, this light may
display green when Sport
Mode is activated and certain
driving conditions are met.
Sport Mode detects when the
vehicle is being driven in a
competitive manner, and
adjusts the shifting of the
gears accordingly. See Driver
Mode Control 0293.
Automatic Vehicle
Hold (AVH) Light
This light comes on when AVH
is actively holding the vehicle.
See Automatic Vehicle Hold
(AVH) 0290.
Lane Keep Assist
(LKA) Light
Base LevelUplevel
If equipped, the Lane Keep
Assist Light may display the
following colors:
.Blank: LKA is disabled.
.White: Appears when the
vehicle starts. A steady
white light indicates that
LKA is not ready to assist.
.Green: Appears when LKA is
turned on and ready to
assist. LKA will gently turn
the steering wheel if the
vehicle approaches a
detected lane marking.
.Amber: Appears when LKA is
active. The light flashes
amber as a Lane Departure
Warning (LDW) alert to
indicate that the lane
marking has been
unintentionally crossed.
If the system detects you
are steering intentionally (to
pass or change lanes), the
LDW alert may not display.
LKA will not assist or alert if
the turn signal is active in the
direction of lane departure,
or if LKA detects that you are
accelerating, braking,
or actively steering. See Lane
Keep Assist (LKA) 0356.

off. To turn TCS and ESC off
and on, see Traction Control/

If TCS is off, wheel slip during
acceleration is not limited
unless necessary to help
protect the driveline from
damage. Adjust driving
accordingly.
StabiliTrak OFF Light
This light comes on briefly
