gauge cluster question [/align][/align]looking at 1998 chevy pickup
When you turn ingition switch to on position.
brake light, seat belt light and other lights come on dash.
But I did not see a engine service light come on, is it also suspose to come on at this time with other dash lights?
Then they go out when truck is started.
I just want to make sure engine service light i's working properly.

I've seen older vehicles where that lite wouldn't work, I hooked a scanner to the data link connector, just to see if I could communicate with the computer.

Thanks guys,
So the " service engine soon" lite should come on when ignition is turned to the on position.
Will check it out in this truck.

The SES light should go thru what is a called a "bulb check" which turns the light on briefly after a key cycle so you can tell if you have a burned out warning lamp.
I have seen unscruplous people remove the bulb and resell the vehicle rather than make a necessary repair.
