tem (ABS) are also equipped with Electronic
Brake Force Distribution (EBD). In the event of
an EBD failure, the Brake Warning Light will turn
on along with the ABS Light. Immediate repair to
the ABS system is required.
Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be
checked by turning the ignition switch from the
OFF position to the ON/RUN position. The light
should illuminate for approximately two seconds.
The light should then turn off unless the parking

The light also will turn on when the parking brake
is applied with the ignition switch in the ON/RUN
position.

This light shows only that the parking brake is
applied. It does not show the degree of brake
application.
