Normal Indicator Operation

The standard brake system uses a single red BRAKE warning indicator located in the instrument panel cluster. The antilock brake system uses the same red BRAKE warning indicator, an amber ABS warning indicator, (ANTI-LOCK) and an amber ABS/ETS active indicator, (LOW TRAC).
1. When the ignition is turned to the to RUN, position, the amber ABS warning indicator, the amber ABS/ETS active indicator, and the red BRAKE warning indicators all turn on for approximately three seconds, then turn off.
2. As the engine is cranked, both the amber ABS warning indicator and the red BRAKE warning indicator will turn on and remain on.
3. After the engine is started, the amber ABS warning indicator, amber ABS/ETS active indicator, and red BRAKE warning indicator will be on for approximately three seconds then turn off.
4. Anytime the EBCM/EBTCM determines that the vehicle has entered a braking event where ABS is required, the amber ABS/ETS active indicator will turn on to indicate that ABS is active. The amber ABS/ETS active indicator will remain on for approximately three to four seconds after the ABS event is completed.
5. Anytime the EBCM/EBTCM determines that the vehicle has entered a event where ETS is required, the amber ABS/ETS active indicator will turn on to indicate that ETS is active. The amber ABS/ETS active indicator will remain on for approximately three to four seconds after the ETS event is completed.
