This light comes on briefly when the ignition key is
turned to ON/RUN. If it does not, have the vehicle
serviced by your dealer/retailer. If the system is working
normally the indicator light will then go off.

When the ignition is on, the brake system warning light
also comes on when the parking brake is set. The
light stays on if the parking brake does not fully release.
If it stays on after the parking brake is fully released,
it means there is a brake problem.

The Driver Information Center (DIC) may display a
BRAKE FLUID message. See DIC Warnings and
Messages
on page 4-41 for more information.

If the light comes on while driving, pull off the road and
stop carefully. The pedal may be harder to push or it
may go closer to the floor. It may take longer to stop. Try
turning off and restarting the vehicle one or two times,
if the light is still on, have the vehicle towed for service.
See Towing Your Vehicle on page 5-25.

Antilock Brake System (ABS)
Warning Light

This light comes on briefly
while the starting the
engine.

If it does not, have the vehicle serviced by the
dealer/retailer. If the system is working normally the
indicator light will then go off.

If the ABS light stays on, turn the ignition off, if the light
comes on while driving, stop as soon as it is safely
possible and turn the ignition off. Then start the engine
again to reset the system. If the ABS light still stays
on, or comes on again while driving, the vehicle needs
service. If the regular brake system warning light is
not on, the vehicle still has brakes, but it does not have
antilock brakes. If the regular brake system warning
light is also on, the vehicle does not have antilock
brakes and there is a problem with the regular brakes.
See Brake System Warning Light on page 4-27.

For vehicles with a Driver Information Center (DIC), see
