there is a malfunction with the ABS

Traction Control (TC) Disabled
Warning Light
The TC disabled warning light
should not illuminate unless traction
control is switched off or there is a
malfunction.
If the warning light becomes illuminated
at any other time while riding, it
indicates that the traction control
system has a malfunction that requires
investigation.
Engine Management System
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) for the engine management
system illuminates when the ignition is
switched ON (to indicate that it is
working) but should not become
illuminated when the engine is running.
If the MIL becomes illuminated when the
engine is running, this indicates that a
fault has occurred in one or more of the
systems controlled by the engine
management system. In such
circumstances, the engine management
system will switch to 'limp-home' mode
so that the journey may be completed, if
the fault is not so severe that the
engine will not run.
Warning
Reduce speed and do not continue to
ride for longer than is necessary with
the MIL illuminated. The fault may
adversely affect engine performance,
exhaust emissions and fuel
consumption.
Reduced engine performance could
cause a dangerous riding condition,
leading to loss of control and an
accident.
Contact an authorised Triumph dealer
as soon as possible to have the fault
checked and rectified.
