Charging System Light The charging system light will come on briefly when you turn on the ignition, as a check to show you it's working. Then it should go out. Brake System Warning Light Your vehicle's hydraulic brake system is divided into two parts. If one part isn't working, the other part can still work and stop you. For good braking, though, you need both parts working well. If the warning light comes on, there is a brake problem. Have your brake system inspected right away. If it stays on, or comes on while you are driving, you may have a problem with the charging system. It could indicate that you have a loose accessory belt or another electrical problem.

If you must drive a short distance with the light on, be certain to turn off all your accessories, such as the radio and air conditioner.
