Intermittent Failures

Intermittent failures may cause CHECK ENGINE light to flicker or light and go out after intermittent fault goes away. However, corresponding trouble code will be retained in ECU memory. If related fault does not reoccur within a certain time frame, related trouble code will be erased from ECU memory. Intermittent failures may be caused by sensor, connector or wiring related problems. For trouble shooting procedures, see TESTS W/O CODES article.

NOTE: After identifying a malfunctioning system, refer to SYSTEM/COMPONENT TESTS article.
