1987 GL Wagon CL Light error message 8??


Recommended Posts

Single digit codes are model specification. According to my 88 FSM, 08 for a SPFI means California model w/ AT.

 

Well, that's what I have a 1987 CA wagon w/AT. How do I get past this to the error that's causing the CL to be on. I watched it blink 8 short times for a while (~10 minutes).

If you have no error codes and the CEL is still on, the problem may be internally with the ECU. The light driver circuit may be bad. I have repaired those in the past with a new IC. The circuit is basically a transistor switch to ground.
