Defect
An improperly designed electrical circuit routing from the power door mirror to the engine control unit allows noise generated during engine start-up to damage the integrated circuit (IC) inside the control unit. This may cause the oxygen sensor heater to become uncontrollable, illuminating the engine warning light, or may cause the injectors to become inoperable, resulting in rough running or a no-start condition.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, add a noise-suppression harness to the engine harness.
