ABS Light: Description and Operation
ABS AND BRAKE WARNING INDICATORS
The amber ABS warning indicator is located in the instrument cluster. It is used to inform the driver that the antilock function has been turned off. The
ABS warning indicator is controlled by the CAB. The CAB controls the lamp with a command over the PCI bus.
The ABS Warning Indicator will remain lit during every key cycle until a circuit or component fault is repaired and the CAB no longer detects the
fault. After repair of a sensor signal fault or a pump motor fault, the CAB must sense all four wheels at 25 km/h (15 mph) before it will extinguish the
ABS and TRAC OFF Indicators.
The Instrument Cluster will illuminate the ABS Warning Indicator if it loses communication with the CAB.
The red BRAKE warning indicator (lamp) is located in the instrument panel cluster and is used to indicate a low brake fluid condition or that the
parking brake is applied. In addition, the brake warning indicator is turned ON as a bulb check by the ignition switch every time the ignition switch is
placed in the crank position.
The red BRAKE warning indicator (lamp) is supplied a 12-volt ignition feed anytime the ignition switch is ON. The bulb is then illuminated by
completing the ground circuit either through the switch ON the parking brake lever, the brake fluid level switch in the master cylinder reservoir, or the
ignition switch when it is placed in the crank position.
