Anti-Lock Brake System Warning Light With the anti-lock brake system, this light will come on when you start your engine and may stay on for several seconds. That's normal. If the light stays on, or comes on when 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" earlier in this section. The anti-lock brake system warning light should come on briefly when you turn the ignition key to RUN. 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 Traction Light (If Equipped) If you have the Traction Assist System, this light will come on when the system is limiting wheel spin. See "Traction Assist System" in the Index. You may feel or hear the system working or notice a lack of accelerator response, but this is normal. The LOW TRACTION light also comes on briefly when you turn your ignition to RUN. If the light doesn't come on then, the system may require service; have it fixed so it will be there to tell you when the traction system is active. Slippery road conditions may exist if this light comes on, so adjust your driving accordingly. 2-104
