NOTE
If the warning light behavior is as described in the following conditions, the ABS system may be considered normal.

• The warning light illuminates right after the engine is started but turns off immediately, remaining off.

• The warning light remains illuminated after the engine has been started, but it turns off when the vehicle speed reaches approximately 8 mph (12 km/h).

When driving with an insufficient battery voltage such as when the engine is jump started, the ABS warning light may illuminate.

This is due to the low battery voltage and does not indicate a malfunction.

When the battery becomes fully charged, the light will turn off.
