“Abs” Warning Light; Open Door Warning Light; Rear Light Failure Warning Light; Skid Control System And “Trac Off” Indicator/Warning Lights - Lexus RX300 2001 Owner's Manual

(h) "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 anti–lock brake system, the brake
assist system, the traction control system and the vehicle skid
control system do not operate, but the brake system still
operates conventionally.
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 could lock up during a sudden
braking or braking on slippery road surfaces.
If either of the following conditions occurs, this indicates
a malfunction somewhere in the parts 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.
GAUGES, METERS AND SERVICE REMINDER INDICATORS
(i) Open Door Warning Light
This light remains on until all the doors are completely closed.
(j) Rear Light Failure Warning Light
If this light comes on when the headlight switch is turned on (at
the first or second clickstop), it indicates that one or more of the
tail lights are burned out.
If it comes on when the brake pedal is depressed, one or more
stop lights are burned out.
Have defective bulbs replaced as soon as possible.
(k) Vehicle Skid Control System and "TRAC
OFF" Indicator/Warning Lights
(Two–wheel drive models)
These lights warn that there is a problem somewhere in the
vehicle skid control system, traction control system or brake
assist system.
The lights will come on when the ignition key is turned to "ON",
and will go off after a few seconds.
If the "VSC" warning light and "TRAC OFF" indicator/warning
light come on, the vehicle skid control system, traction control
system and brake assist system do not work. However, as
conventional braking operates when applied, there is no
problem to continue your driving.
