Brake System Indicators
BRAKE
The IPC illuminates the BRAKE indicator when any of the following occur:
| • | The IPC detects that the park brake is engaged. If the vehicle
travels 3-15.2 meters (10-50 feet) with the park
brake engaged, the IPC sends a class 2 message to the radio in order
to activate an audible warning. |
| • | The IPC detects a low brake fluid condition. The IPC sends a class 2
message to the radio in order to activate an audible warning. |
| • | The electronic brake control module (EBCM) detects a failure in
the braking system. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the EBCM
requesting illumination. The IPC sends a class 2 message to the radio
in order to activate an audible warning. |
| • | The IPC performs the displays test at the start of each ignition
cycle. The indicator illuminates for approximately 5 seconds. |
| • | The IPC detects a loss of class 2 communications with the
EBCM and the discrete back-up ABS indicator signal circuit is high. |
LOW BRAKE FLUID -- 14
The DIC displays the LOW BRAKE FLUID -- 14 message when the IPC
