Antilock Brake System (ABS)
Warning Light
For vehicles with
the Antilock Brake
System (ABS), this light
comes on briefly when
the engine is started.
If it does not, have the vehicle serviced by your
dealer/retailer. If the system is working normally the
indicator light then goes off.
If the ABS light stays on, turn the ignition off. If the
light comes on while driving, stop as soon as it is safely
possible and turn the ignition off. Then start the engine
again to reset the system. If the ABS light stays on, or
comes on again while driving, the vehicle needs service.
If the regular brake system warning light is not on, the
vehicle still has brakes, but not antilock brakes. If the
regular brake system warning light is also on, the vehicle
does not have antilock brakes and there is a problem with
the regular brakes. See Brake System Warning Light on
page 3-40.
For vehicles with a Driver Information Center (DIC),
see DIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-56 for
all brake related DIC messages.
Traction Control System (TCS)
Warning Light
The Traction Control
System (TCS) Warning
light comes on briefly while
starting the engine.
If it does not, have the vehicle serviced by your
dealer/retailer. If the system is working normally the
indicator light then goes off.
If the light stays on, or comes on while driving and a
SERVICE TRACTION SYSTEM message displays in
the Driver Information Center (DIC), the vehicle needs
service.
This light comes on when the TCS is turned off and a
TRACTION SYSTEM OFF message displays on the DIC.
When this light is on, the TCS system does not limit
wheel spin.
