VISUAL MESSAGES
Following are the visual messages and the condi-
tions under which, the messages will be given:
² Keys in ignition
² Exterior lamps on
These messages will appear if the conditions are
present and the driver's door is open while the igni-
tion switch is in the OFF, LOCK, or ACC positions.
A tone will sound until the condition is corrected or
the door is closed.
² Passenger door ajar
² Driver door ajar
² Trunk ajar
² Park brake engaged
² Right rear door ajar
² Left rear door ajar
These messages will appear if a condition is de-
tected after the vehicle is in motion. When the con-
dition is corrected, a short tone will sound to
acknowledge the action. LOW OIL PRESSURE
If this message is displayed while the vehicle is at
cruising speeds, immediate attention is required. If
this message appears at idle speed, increase the idle
speed and the message should go off. If the message
remains on, immediate attention is required. ENGINE TEMP CRITICAL
This message appears when a sensor has determined
that the engine coolant is overheating. If this message
comes on and stays on, immediate action is required.

miles or 12 months intervals, which ever comes first. MONITORED SYSTEMS OK
If there is no warning condition to report, the mes-
sage Monitored Systems OK is displayed (Fig. 2).
AUTOMATIC CALIBRATION SET PROCEDURE
The engine compartment node will continuously
and automatically recalibrate the compass under nor-
mal driving conditions. As long as the vehicle is
turning, the engine compartment node will record
new compass data. This new data will be used to
recalibrate the compass at a rate of at least once per
full (360 degree) turn of the vehicle. Automatic cali-
bration does not require operator interface.
MANUAL CALIBRATION SET PROCEDURE
Manual compass calibration has been replaced by
automatic calibration set procedure. The manual cal-
ibration set procedure is available, but no longer
serves any useful purpose.
EVIC SELF CHECK DIAGNOSTICS
Ignition switch ON, the EVIC not displaying any
message, may imply a system failure and not an
EVIC failure. Turn the ignition OFF, close all vehi-
cle doors and wait at least 60 seconds before begin-
ning test. Turn ignition switch to the ON position.
Pressing the TEMP, FUEL and INFO buttons at the
same time shall provide the visual message MOD-
ULE SELF CHECK for two seconds. Following at
two second interval there will be messages:
² E2-0 SELF CHECK
² E3-0 SELF CHECK
² END OF SELF CHECK
Showing the microcomputer is working properly.
When the self check mode and message shows:
² E2-1
² E3-2
This would show a fault exists in the EVIC's micro-
computer and the EVIC should be replaced (Fig. 3).
