Service Transmission Warning Light

If your vehicle has an Allison automatic transmission,
certain transmission malfunctions will turn this light on.
If this light comes on while you are driving, do not use
the transmission shift control or you may lose forward
gears. The computer for the transmission senses
a problem and chooses a gear to stay in so that you
can drive the vehicle in that gear. You may not be able
to drive as fast or back up when this light is on.
Notice: If you continue driving your vehicle after
the transmission warning light comes on, you could
damage the transmission. While this light is on,
the transmission cannot operate in all gears. If you
attempt to shift gears, the vehicle may not
continue to move. Do not attempt to shift gears
while the transmission warning light is on. Instead,
drive directly to a GM dealer for service. If you
cannot drive to a dealer immediately, have the
vehicle towed.
This light is located with
the auxiliary warning lights
in the center of the
instrument panel.

Range Inhibit Warning Indicator

If your vehicle has an Allison
1000/2000/2200/2400 series automatic transmission, a
lighted bar under the current gear selected will flash.
If your vehicle has an Allison MD automatic
transmission, the current gear selected on the
pushbutton display will flash.
The flashing bar or gear selection indicates that
transmission range shifts may not occur.
For detailed information on shift inhibit limitations, see
the Allison Automatic Transmission Operator's Manual in
your vehicle for further information.

Brake System Warning Light

Your vehicle has either hydraulic or air brakes. Each
system has different warning lights.
