If the light stays on, turn the ignition to OFF. Or, if the
light comes on when you're driving, stop as soon
as possible and turn the ignition off. Then start the
engine again to reset the system. If the light still stays
on, or comes on again while you're driving, your vehicle
needs service. If the regular brake system warning
light isn't on, you still have brakes, but you don't have
anti-lock brakes. If the regular brake system warning
light is also on, you don't have anti-lock brakes
and there's a problem with your regular brakes. See

The anti-lock brake system warning light will come on
briefly when you turn the ignition key to RUN. This
is normal. If the light doesn't come on then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there is a problem.
