Electric Parking Brake
Light
English Metric
For vehicles with the Electric Park
Brake (EPB), the park brake status
light comes on when the brake is
applied. If the light continues
flashing after the park brake is
released, or while driving, there is a
problem with the Electric Parking
Brake system. A Service Parking
Brake message may also display in
the Driver Information Center (DIC).
See Brake System Messages
on
page 531
for more information.
If the light does not come on,
or remains flashing, see your dealer.
For vehicles with the Electric Park
Brake (EPB), the park brake
warning light should come on briefly
when ignition is placed in ON/RUN.
If it does not come on, then have it
fixed so it will be ready to warn if
there is a problem.
If this light comes on, there is a
problem with a system on the
vehicle that is causing the park
brake system to work at a reduced
level. The vehicle can still be driven,
but should be taken to a dealer as
soon as possible. See Parking
Brake
on page 933
for more
information.
For vehicles with the uplevel cluster,
