Charge Indicator


The charge indicator in the instrument cluster turns ON if the ignition is ON and the engine is not running. When the engine starts, the indicator should turn OFF. If the indicator turns ON and remains ON when the engine is running, there is a fault in the charging system. The charge indicator does not identify what type of fault the PCM detects. The charge indicator also turns ON while the engine is running if the system voltage is too high or too low.
