Electric Parking Brake
Light
English
Metric
For vehicles with the Electric
Parking Brake (EPB), the parking
brake status light comes on
when the brake is applied. If the
light continues flashing after the
parking brake is released, or while
driving, there is a problem with
the Electric Parking Brake system.
A SERVICE PARKING BRAKE
message may also display in the
Driver Information Center (DIC).
See Brake System Messages on
page 5 33 for more information.
If the light does not come on,
or remains flashing, see your dealer.
I n f o r ma t i o n P r o v i d e d b y :
For vehicles with the Electric
Parking Brake (EPB), the parking
brake warning light should come
on briefly when ignition is placed
in ON/RUN. If it does not come on,
then have it fixed so it will be ready
to warn if there is a problem.
If this light comes on, there is a
problem with a system on the
vehicle that is causing the parking
brake system to work at a reduced
level. The vehicle can still be driven,
but should be taken to a dealer
as soon as possible. See Parking
Brake on page 9 33 for more
information.
For vehicles with the uplevel cluster,
this telltale displays in the Driver
Information Center (DIC) screen.
