Parking Brake Warning Light

Description: Located on the instrument panel, this warning light may be labeled BRAKE, ANTILOCK or ABS. Click here to view a detailed diagram of the brake system.

Purpose: The ABS warning light alerts you to problems in the ABS system.

Maintenance Tips/Suggestions: When turning the ignition switch to the on position, the amber BRAKE, ANTILOCK or ABS light on the instrument panel should glow momentarily, and then turn off. If the light stays on or flashes, or comes on while driving, it indicates a fault in the ABS system. Have your car's ABS system inspected immediately by a professional technician to determine the source of the problem.
