Electric Parking Brake

Light

For vehicles with the Electric Park
Brake (EPB), the park brake status
light comes on when the brake is
applied. If the light continues
flashing after the park 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 4 34 for more information.
If the light does not come on,
or remains flashing, see your
dealer/retailer.
For vehicles with the Electric Park
Brake (EPB), the park 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 park
brake system to work at a reduced

driven, but should be taken to a
dealer/retailer as soon as possible.
