Significance of EPC warning lamp

"EPC" is an abbreviation and stands for Electronic Power Control and means "electronic engine load control" (E-gas).

If malfunctions are recognized in the E-gas system during operation of the engine, the Engine Control Module (ECM) switches on the EPC warning lamp. (These malfunctions are listed in the DTC table). An entry is made in DTC memory at the same time.
