“Abs” Warning Light - Lexus GX470 2006 Service Manual

(f) "ABS" Warning Light
The light comes on when the ignition key is turned to the "ON"
position. If the anti lock brake system and the brake assist
system work properly, the light turns off after a few seconds.
Thereafter, if either of the systems malfunctions, the light
comes on again.
When the "ABS" warning light is on (and the brake system
warning light is off), the following systems do not operate, but
the brake system still operates conventionally.
D Anti lock brake system
D Brake assist system
D Active traction control system
D Vehicle stability control system
D Downhill assist control system
D Hill start assist control
When the "ABS" warning light is on (and the brake system
warning light is off), the anti lock brake system does not
operate, so that the wheels will lock up during a sudden braking
or braking on slippery road surfaces.
GAUGES, METERS AND SERVICE REMINDER INDICATORS
If either of the following conditions occurs, this indicates
a malfunction somewhere in the components monitored
by the warning light system. Contact your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible to service the vehicle.
D The light does not come on when the ignition key is turned
to the "ON" position, or remains on.
D The light comes on while you are driving.
A warning light turning on briefly during operation does not
indicate a problem.
If the "ABS" warning light remains on together with the
brake system warning light, immediately stop your
vehicle at a safe place and contact your Lexus dealer.
In this case, not only the anti lock brake system will fail
but also the vehicle will become extremely unstable
during braking.
Either of the following conditions may occur, but do not
indicate a malfunction:
D The light may stay on for about 60 seconds after the ignition
key is turned to the "ON" position. It is normal if it turns off
after a while.
D Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly may turn on the
light. It is normal if it turns off after a few seconds.
