This system has two indicators:

• ABS indicator (A)
• Brake system indicator (B)

When the system is OK, each indicator comes on for about 2 seconds after turning the ignition switch to ON (II), then goes off.

When the system detects a problem, a DTC will set and, depending upon the failure, the ABS modulator-control unit determines which indicator(s) will turn on. If the problem goes away (system returns to normal), the indicator(s) will be controlled in the following way depending upon the DTC that was set:

• The indicator(s) will come on and stay on when the ignition switch is ON (II).
• The indicator(s) will automatically go off.
• The indicator(s) will go off after the vehicle is driven.
