0002194 Dealer Repair Information

The MIL illuminates soon after starting the vehicle with Diagnostic     
Trouble Code P1523. The VICS solenoid valve trouble detection program in

the PCM does not operate correctly when the vehicle's battery is low.

Beginning with 1996 model year vehicles, the programming logic of the
PCM has been changed to correct this concern. Customers complaining of
this concern should have the battery recharged or replaced as per
Service Bulletin G-002/95.
