Intermittent Failures
Intermittent failures may cause malfunction light to flicker. Light goes out after intermittent fault goes away. Corresponding trouble code, however, will be retained in control unit memory. If fault does not reoccur within a certain time frame, related trouble code will be erased from control unit memory. Intermittent failures may be caused by sensor, connector or wiring related problems. See INTERMITTENTS in TESTS W/O CODES article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE Section.
