Brake System Warning Light
This light should come on briefly when the engine is
started.
If it does not come on, have it fixed so it will be ready to
warn you if there is a problem.
When the ignition is on, the brake system warning light
will come on when the parking brake is set. The light will
stay on if the parking brake does not release fully. If it
stays on after the parking brake is fully released, there is
a brake problem. Have your brake system inspected
immediately.
If the light comes on while driving, a chime will sound.
Pull off the road and stop. The pedal might be harder to
push or go closer to the floor. It might also take longer
to stop. If the light is still on, have the vehicle towed
for service. See Towing Your Vehicle on page 4-41.
{CAUTION:
Your brake system may not be working
properly if the brake system warning light is
on. Driving with the brake system warning light
on can lead to an accident. If the light is still
on after you have pulled off the road and
stopped carefully, have the vehicle towed
for service.
