From model year 1996, vehicles manufactured for the North American market are equipped with a Government required diagnostic system known as On-Board Diagnostics II (OBD II). This system monitors operation and function of all engine management system activity and automatic transmission operation to insure compliance with specified emission levels.
Vehicle emission levels are constantly monitored by the OBD II system and malfunctions are recognized and recorded. A Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) in the instrument cluster alerts the driver to the fault and the need to have the system checked for fault codes. These codes follow a standard format and are known as Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).

All 850 models are equipped with an analog gauge instrument cluster. Speedometer is centrally located with tachometer on right and coolant temperature/fuel gauges on left. Warning/telltale lights arelocated at bottom left and right sides of instrument cluster. Digital clock and ambient temperature display are located under odometer. This section of instrument cluster may contain an optional trip computer that provides information on average fuel consumption, current fuel consumption, average speed, trip meter, ambient temperature and range of fuel in tank. Instrument cluster is equipped with self-diagnostic capabilities.

Assembly Line Data Link (ALDL) connector may also be referred to as Data Link Connector (DLC). The term CHECK ENGINE light is now referred to as Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL). The MIL is displayed in instrument cluster as CHECK ENGINE.
If no faults were found while performing BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES, proceed with self-diagnostics. If no fault codes or only pass codes are present after entering self-diagnostics, proceed to the H - TESTS W/O CODES article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE section for diagnosis by symptom (i.e., ROUGH IDLE, NO START, etc.).
