Anti-Lock Brake System Warning
Light
With anti-lock, this light will come on
when you start your engine and may stay
on for about two seconds. That’s normal.
If the light doesn’t come on, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there is i
problem.
If the light stays on, turn the ignition off.
Or, if the light comes on when you’re
driving, stop as soon as possible and turn
the ignition
off. Then start the engine
again to reset the system. If the light still
stays on, or comes on again while you’re
driving, your Corvette needs service. 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. See
“Brake System Warning Light” earlier in
this part.
