SERVICE
With the anti-lock brake
system, this light will come
on when you start your
engine and may stay on for
several seconds. 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.
Anti-Lock Brake System Active Light
ABS
ACTIVE
When your anti-lock system
is adjusting brake pressure
to help avoid a braking skid,
the
ABS ACTIVE light will
come on. Slippery road
conditions may exist
if this
light comes on,
so adjust
your driving accordingly.
If the light stays on, turn the ignition
off. Or, if the light
comes on when you’re driving, stop
as soon as possible
and turn the ignition
off. Then start the engine again to
reset the system. If the light still stays on, or comes on
again while you’re driving, your Corvette needs service.
If the regular brake system warning light isn’t on, you
still have brakes, but you don’t have anti-lock brakes. If
the regular brake system warning light is also on, you
don’t have anti-lock brakes and there’s a problem with
your regular brakes. See “Brake System Warning Light”
earlier in this part. The
light will stay on for a few seconds after the system
stops adjusting brake pressure.
The ABS ACTIVE light also comes on briefly, as a bulb
check, when the engine is started. If the light doesn’t
come on then, have it fixed
so it will be there to tell you
when the system is active.
