until you turn OFF the ignition key or start the engine.
This means that your vehicle’s OBD II system is not
ready and you should not proceed to the I/M station.
b. The CHECK ENGINE light will not flash at all and
will remain fully illuminated until you turn off the
ignition key or start the engine. This means that your
vehicle’s OBD II system is ready and you can proceed
to the I/M station.
If your OBD II system is not ready, you should see your
authorized dealer or repair facility. If your vehicle was
recently serviced or had a battery failure or replacement,
you may need to do nothing more than drive your
vehicle as you normally would in order for your OBD II
system to update. A recheck with the above test routine
may then indicate that the system is now ready.
Regardless of whether your vehicle’s OBD II system is
ready or not ready, if the CHECK ENGINE light is
illuminated during normal vehicle operation, you should
have your vehicle serviced before going to the I/M
station. The I/M station can fail your vehicle because the
CHECK ENGINE light is on with the engine running.
REPLACEMENT PARTS
Use of genuine Mopart parts for normal/scheduled
maintenance and repairs is highly recommended to en-
sure the designed performance. Damage or failures
caused by the use of non-Mopart parts for maintenance
and repairs will not be covered by the warranty offered
by DaimlerChrysler Corporation.

nel, special tools and equipment to perform all service
operations in an expert manner. Service Manuals are
available which include detailed service information for

any procedure yourself.
