  2. Check for continuity between the positive terminal (C) and body ground.
    • With the parking brake pedal pressed, there should be continuity.
    • With the parking brake pedal released, there should be no continuity.
    NOTE:
    • If both the ABS/VSA indicator and the brake system indicator come on at the same time, check the VSA first.
    • If the parking brake switch/fluid level switch is OK, but the brake system indicator does not function, check the VSA.
