Antilock Brake
System (ABS)
Warning Light
This light comes on briefly
when the vehicle is turned on
to show that the light is
working. If it does not come on
then, have it fixed so it will be
ready to warn you if there is a
problem.
If the ABS warning light stays
on, or comes on again while
driving, the vehicle needs
service. A chime may also
sound when the light stays on. If the ABS warning light is the
only light on, the vehicle has
regular brakes, but ABS is not
functioning.
If both the ABS warning light
and the brake system warning
light are on, ABS is not
functioning and there is a
problem with the regular
brakes. See your dealer for
service.
