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.

Service Ride Control Light
SERVICE
RIDE
CONTROL
If your vehicle is equipped
with Selective Ride Control,
this amber light should
come on for
a few seconds
when you start your vehicle.
If the light stays on or comes on while you’re driving,
there may be
a problem with your Selective Ride
Control system. You can still drive, but you should see
your dealer soon.
The Selective Ride Control system is designed to sense
vehicle speed in the first minute after the vehicle is
started. If the vehicle is not moved in that first minute,
the system records a fault. The SERVICE RIDE
CONTROL light comes on after three faults are
recorded. If the light comes on for this reason, move
your Corvette and the light should
go out.

System Problems
If the light above an air control button flashes when you
turn on the ignition, your system may have an electrical
problem. The flashing will continue for one minute, then
stop.
The flashing light could also mean the refrigerant level
is too low in your system. The light will continue to
flash, even if refrigerant is added, until the system is
reset. Have your system checked and serviced if needed.
To reset your system:
1. Turn your ignition key to OFF or LOCK.
2. Remove the courtesy lamps and radio fuses from the
main fuse panel and wait one minute. See “Fuses and
Circuit Breakers” in the Index.
3. Put the fuses back in and start your vehicle.
The light shouldn’t come on and your system should be
working properly. If you still have a problem, see your
dealer.
