• The dual brake system provides a reserve braking capacity in the event of a failure
to a portion of the hydraulic system. A leak in either half of the dual brake system
is indicated by the Brake Warning Light, which will turn on when the brake fluid
level in the master cylinder has dropped below a specified level.
• The light will remain on until the cause is corrected.
• Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), are also equipped with
Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD). In the event of an EBD failure, the
Brake Warning Light will turn on along with the ABS Light. Immediate repair to the
ABS system is required.
• Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be checked by turning the ignition
switch from the OFF position to the ON/RUN position. The light should illuminate
for approximately two seconds. The light should then turn off unless the parking
brake is applied or a brake fault is detected. If the light does not illuminate, have
the light inspected by an authorized dealer.
• The light also will turn on when the parking brake is applied with the ignition
switch in the ON/RUN position.
NOTE:
This light shows only that the parking brake is applied. It does not show the degree
of brake application.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake system
may have failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have a collision.
Have the vehicle checked immediately.
NOTE:
** Bulb Check with Key On
- Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) **
• The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is part of an onboard diagnostic system
called OBD II that monitors engine and automatic transmission control systems.
The light will illuminate when the key is in the ON/RUN position before engine
start. If the bulb does not come on when turning the key from OFF to ON/RUN,
have the condition checked promptly.
• Certain conditions, poor fuel quality, etc., may illuminate the light after engine
start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on through several of your
typical driving cycles. In most situations, the vehicle will drive normally and will
not require towing.
CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) on could cause damage
to the engine control system. It also could affect fuel economy and driveability. If the
MIL is flashing, severe catalytic converter damage and power loss will soon occur.
Immediate service is required.
