Default SYS keeps comeing on ??

This is a 94 just got it Thu. when I picked it up we had to jump it to start it.
Should I have the battery checked. Or could it be something other than
the battery. Car starts right up but the SYS keeps comeing on.

Default Re: SYS keeps comeing on ?? (blk90)

When my battery is low (from sitting around in the winter) the SYS will flash. If the battery is original, or older than 3-4 years, I'd replace it.

blk90, the SYS indicates the CCM (not the ECM, engine control module) has detected a fault. Two of the most common reasons are the CCM has seen the ignition voltage out of range(usaully just a battery going) or the radio head unit has been changed to an aftermarket unit that has a different resistance in the backlight dimmer circuit which the CCM takes to be an error(which can be fixed easily).There are a few other things that can set the SYS, but they don't effect the engine. :steering:
