the instrument cluster will come on when the
ignition is placed in the ON/RUN position, and

running. If the ESC Indicator Light comes on continuously
with the engine running, a malfunction has been detected

Engine Check/Malfunction Indicator (MIL)

in the ON/RUN position before engine start. If the bulb
does not come on when turning the ignition switch from
OFF to ON/RUN, have the condition checked promptly.
Certain conditions, such as a loose or missing gas cap,
poor quality fuel, etc., may illuminate the light after engine
start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on
through several typical driving styles. In most situations,
the vehicle will drive normally and will not require towing.
