Abs Indicator

The Amber ABS warning indicator lamp is located in the instrument cluster. When the ignition key is turned to the ON position, the Amber ABS warning indicator lamp is lit until the Controller Anti-Lock Brake (CAB) completes its self-tests and turns off the lamp (approximately 4 seconds). The Amber ABS warning indicator lamp will illuminate when the CAB detects a condition that results in the shutdown of ABS function. The CAB sends a message to the Mechanical Instrument Cluster (MIC) instructing it to turn on the Amber ABS warning indicator lamp.

Under most conditions, when the Amber ABS warning indicator lamp is on, only the ABS function of the brake system is affected. The Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD), the base brake system and the ability to stop the vehicle are not affected.
