master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake
hydraulic system malfunction or that a problem with the
Brake Booster has been detected by the Anti-Lock Brake
System (ABS)/Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system.

has been corrected. If the problem is related to the brake
booster, the ABS pump will run when applying the brake
