When the ignition is on, the brake system warning light
will also come on when you set your parking brake.
See Parking Brake on page 2-29 for more information.
The light will stay on if your parking brake does not
release fully. If it stays on after your parking brake is
fully released, it means you have a brake problem.
If the light comes on while you are driving, pull off the
road and stop carefully. You may notice that the pedal is
harder to push, or the pedal may go closer to the
floor. It may take longer to stop. If the light is still on,
have the vehicle towed for service. See Towing
Your Vehicle on page 4-50.
CAUTION:
{
Your brake system may not be working properly
if the brake system warning light is on. Driving
with the brake system warning light on can lead
to an accident. If the light is still on after you
have pulled off the road and stopped carefully,
have the vehicle towed for service.
Anti-Lock Brake System
Warning Light
If the light stays on, or comes on when 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 Brake System Warning Light on page 3-28.
The anti-lock brake system warning light should come
on briefly when you turn the ignition key to ON. If
the light doesn't come on then, have it fixed so it will be
ready to warn you if there is a problem.
With the anti-lock brake
system, this light will come
on briefly when you
start your engine to show it
is working. Then it will
turn off. This is normal.
