Anti-Lock Brake System Warning Light
. -, i’
.. I. ,:,:
With anti-lock, this light will go on when you start your
engine and may stay on for several seconds or
so. That’s
normal.
If the light doesn’t come on, have it fixed so it
will be ready to warn you if there is a problem.
If the light stays on or comes on when you’re driving,
stop as soon as possible and turn the key
off. Then start
the engine to reset the system.
If the light still stays on,
or comes on again while you’re driving, your Buiek
needs service. Unless the regular ‘brake system warning
light is also
on, you will still have brakes, but not
anti-lock brakes.
If the regular brake system warning
light is also
on, see “Brake System Warning Light”
earlier
in this part.
The anti-lock brake system warning .light may also come
on when you are driving with
a compact spare. tire, If
this happens, the light means you won’t have anti-lo,ck
until you replace the compact spare ,with
.a fuU-simtire.
If the anti-lock brake system warning light stays
on after
you replace the compact spare with a full-size tire, or if
it comes
on again when you’re driving, your Buick
needs service.
