- Check that all of the following conditions required for the brake system warning light (red indicator) to turn off are met:
- The brake fluid level in the brake master cylinder reservoir assembly is not low.
Result
Proceed to NEXT
Result:
NEXT
See step 2
- Check that all of the following conditions required for the brake system warning light (red indicator) to turn off are met:
- INSPECT BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER RESERVOIR ASSEMBLY
- With a sufficient level of brake fluid, disconnect the A125 brake fluid level warning switch (brake master cylinder reservoir assembly) connector and confirm that the brake system warning light (red indicator) turns off.
OK
The brake system warning light (red indicator) turns off.
HINT:
If the brake system warning light (red indicator) turns off, there is a short in the brake fluid level warning switch (brake master cylinder reservoir assembly) circuit.
