BRAKE Indicator

The BRAKE indicator will be illuminated when low brake fluid level in the master cylinder is sensed, the parking brake switch is closed, or under the control of the Electronic Brake Control Module/Electronic Brake Traction Control Module (EBCM/EBTCM) when certain ABS Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are set. This indicator warns the driver that a base brake problem may exist. For more information on ABS, refer to Antilock Brake System. Antilock Brakes / Traction Control Systems
