Charging System Light; Brake System Warning Light - Chevrolet 2004 Classic Owner's Manual

Charging System Light

When the engine is running, the light should go out.
If it stays on, or comes on while you are driving and you
hear a chime, you may have a problem with the
electrical charging system. It could indicate that you
have a loose generator drive belt or another electrical
problem. Have it checked right away. Driving while
this light is on could drain your battery.
If you must drive a short distance with the light on, be
certain to turn off all your accessories, such as the radio
and air conditioner.
The charging system light
will come on when you
turn on the ignition, but the
engine is not running, as
a check to show you it
is working.

Brake System Warning Light

Your vehicle's hydraulic brake system is divided into two
parts. If one part isn't working, the other part can still
work and stop you. For good braking, though, you need
both parts working well.
If the warning light comes on, there is a brake problem.
Have your brake system inspected right away.
When the ignition is on, the brake system warning light
will also come on when you set your parking brake.
The light will stay on if your parking brake doesn't
release fully. If it stays on after your parking brake is
fully released, it means you have a brake problem.
This light should come on
briefly when you turn the
ignition key to ON. If it
doesn't come on
then, have it fixed so it will
be ready to warn you if
there's a problem.
