Defect
On fuel-powered vehicles, the wiring of the temperature sensor circuit for the warning lamp—which is designed to alert the driver when the emissions catalyst reaches an abnormally high temperature—is incorrectly routed. As a result, the warning lamp does not illuminate even when the catalyst temperature rises to an abnormal level.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, reroute the temperature sensor circuit wiring correctly.
