Anti-lock Brake System Warning Light
(If equipped)
[LG10400(ALL)03/95]
Your vehicle may have an Anti-lock Brake
System (ABS) feature. If it does, check the
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) light each time
you start the engine. If it stays on longer than
six seconds, shut off the engine and restart. If it
stays on, that means the Anti-lock Brake feature
isn't working and should be serviced
immediately to restore the benefits of the
anti-lock brake feature. Normal braking is not
affected unless the brake warning light is also lit.
[LG10410(ALL)07/93]
The Anti-lock Brake System has self-check
capabilities. As described above, the system
turns on the anti-lock light each time you start
your engine. After the engine is started and the
anti-lock light turns off, the system performs
another test the first time the vehicle reaches
7 mph (11 km/h). The system turns on the ABS
pump motor for approximately 1/2 second. At
this time, a mechanical noise may be heard. This
is a normal part of the self-check feature. If a
malfunction is found during this check the
anti-lock light will come on.
