Anti-Lock Warning Lamp

DESCRIPTION
This lamp will be illuminated when the ignition switch is placed in the ON position. The lamp may be illuminated for as long as 30 seconds as a bulb and system check. If lamp remains illuminated or comes on while operating the vehicle, a problem in the anti-lock brake system is indicated.

OPERATION
When lamp is illuminated, place ignition switch in OFF position, then restart engine. If lamp still remains illuminated, the antilock brake system should be serviced. The brake system will remain functional, but without the anti-lock function. After servicing the anti-lock brake system the lamp will automatically reset.
