the repair technician should leave the odometer reading

the same as it was before the repair or service. If s/he

cannot do so, then the odometer must be set at zero, and

a sticker must be placed in the door jamb stating what the

mileage was before the repair or service. It is a good idea

for you to make a record of the odometer reading before

the repair/service, so that you can be sure that it is

properly reset, or that the door jamb sticker is accurate if

the odometer must be reset at zero.
This display shows the Electronic Vehicle Information

Center (EVIC) messages when the appropriate conditions

exist. For further information, refer to Electronic Vehicle

Information Center (EVIC).
Loose Fuel Filler Cap Message

If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that the fuel

filler cap is loose, improperly installed, or damaged, a

“Check Gascap” message will display in the odometer

display area. Tighten the fuel filler cap properly and

press the TRIP ODOMETER button to turn off the

message. If the problem continues, the message will

appear the next time the vehicle is started.
A loose, improperly installed, or damaged fuel filler cap

may also turn on the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL).
20. Brake Warning Light

This light monitors various brake functions,

including brake fluid level and parking brake

application. If the brake light turns on it may

indicate that the parking brake is applied, that

the brake fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with

the anti-lock brake system reservoir.
If the light remains on when the parking brake has been

disengaged, and the fluid level is at the full mark on the

master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake

hydraulic system malfunction. In this case, the light will

remain on until the condition has been corrected.
