Mustang GT V8-4.6L SOHC VIN X (1998)
ABS Light: Description and Operation
The brake system uses two warning indicators to alert the driver of malfunctions in the system.
The red brake warning indicator will come on for only two reasons:
1. If the brake fluid level in the brake master cylinder reservoir falls below the level which is determined by the switch point of the Fluid Level
Switch.
2. If the parking brake is applied.
The amber (ABS) check anti-lock brake warning indicator will come on to indicate numerous concerns. It warns the driver that the anti-lock brake
system has been turned off due to a condition in the system. Certain procedures must be followed to find the fault in this situation.
Normal power-assisted braking remains while the amber ABS is on, but the wheels might lock during a panic stop while the indicator is on.
