Brake Warning Indicator

The brake warning indicator is a dual colored indicator, located in the coolant temperature gage, that illuminates amber for EBA faults and red for EBD faults. The brake warning indicator is also used to give warnings of:

• Low brake fluid level (illuminates red).

  For additional information, refer to: HYDRAULIC BRAKE ACTUATION .

• Brake pad wear (illuminates amber).

  For additional information, refer to: REAR DISC BRAKE .

Operation of the brake warning indicator is controlled by a high speed CAN bus message from the ABS module to the instrument cluster.

When the ignition switch is first turned to position II, the brake warning indicator illuminates amber for approximately 1.5 seconds then red for approximately 1.5 seconds, as a bulb check.
