UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 93 WARNING! Driving a vehicle with the brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake system may have failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have an accident. Have the vehicle checked immediately. NOTE: This light shows only that the parking brake is on. It does not show the degree of brake application. The brake warning light will come on if the ABS light is not functioning and there is an ABS system malfunction. 11. Light Outage Indicator With the key in the ignition switch turned to the ON/RUN position, an indicator light comes on. It should go out when the engine is running. If the indicator light does not go out after starting the engine, or if it comes on while driving, it indicates a failure in the parking light, taillight, stoplight, or low beam headlight. The indicator light will come on when the exterior light fails. If a brake light fails, the light outage indicator will come on when applying the brake and stays on until the engine is turned off. NOTE: If additional lighting equipment is installed (e.g., auxiliary headlights, etc.) be certain to connect into the fuse before the failure indicator monitoring unit in order to avoid damaging the system. 12. Antilock Warning Indicator Light The ABS warning indicator light comes on with the key in the ignition switch turned to the ON/RUN position, and should go out with the engine running. If the ABS warning indicator light comes on while the engine is running, it indicates that the ABS has detected a malfunction and has switched off. In this case, the brake system functions in the usual manner, but without antilock assistance. If the ABS light is on, have the system checked at your authorized dealer as soon as possible. 4
