there is a brake problem. Have the
brake system inspected right away.This light should come on briey
when the ignition key is turned
to ON/RUN. If it does not come
on then, have it xed so it will be
ready to warn if there is a problem.
This light may also come on due
to low brake uid. SeeBrakes
on page 5-27for more information.
When the ignition is on, the brake
system warning light will also come
on when the parking brake is set.

brake does not release fully. If it
stays on after the parking brake is
fully released, it means there is a
brake problem.
If the light comes on while driving,
pull off the road and stop carefully.

to push or, the pedal may go closer
to the oor. It may take longer to

be working properly if the brake
system warning light is on. Driving
with the brake system warning light
