Anti-Lock Brake System Warning
Light

With the anti-lock brake
system, this light will come
on when you start your
engine and may stay on for
several seconds.

That’s normal. If the light doesn’t come on then, have it
fixed so it will be ready to warn you if there is a
problem.

If the light stays on, or comes on when you’re driving,
your vehicle needs service. You will also hear a
chime sound when the light is on steady. 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. In addition to both lights, you will
also hear a chime sound on the first occurrence of
a problem and each time the vehicle is shut off and then
restarted. See Brake System Warning Light on
page 3-32
.

Traction Off Light

The traction off light will
come on when a traction
control system or anti-lock
brake system problem
has been detected.
The vehicle may need
service.

When this light is on, the system will not limit wheel
spin. Adjust your driving accordingly. See Traction
Control System (TCS)
on page 4-9.

If the Traction Control System (TCS) detects that the
vehicle’s brake’s are overheating, the TCS will shut off
and the traction off light will come on. When the
brakes cool off, the TCS will turn back on automatically
and the traction off light will go out.
