MIL Bulb Check and Readiness Code Condition
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Acura TL and 2009 Acura TL. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
When the ignition switch is turned to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode, the ECM/PCM turns on the MIL via the F-CAN circuit for about 15 to 20 seconds to check the bulb condition. If any readiness codes are not set to complete, the MIL flashes five times. If all readiness codes are set to complete, the MIL goes off.
