on, or comes on again while you’re driving, your vehicle
needs service. If the regular brake system warning

and there’s a problem with your regular brakes. See

coolant temperature.
If the gage pointer moves into the red area, your engine
is too hot! It means that your engine coolant has
overheated. The CHECK GAGES light should come on
if this condition exists. SeeCheck Gages Warning
Light on page 3-33for more information. If you have
been operating your vehicle under normal conditions,
you should pull off the road, stop your vehicle and turn
