Anti-Lock Brake System

Warning Light

United States

Canada

With the anti-lock brake system, the light will come on when your engine is started and may stay on for several seconds. That’s normal.

If the light stays on, turn the ignition to LOCK. 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 vehicle 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 on page 3-32.

The anti-lock brake system warning light will come on briefly when you turn the ignition key to ON. This is normal. If the light doesn’t come on then, have it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if there is a problem.

Low Tire Pressure Warning Light

This light should come on briefly as you start the engine. It will then come on only when a low tire pressure condition exists.

See Tire Pressure Monitor System on page 5-60 for more information.
