Brake Warning Indicator: Description and Operation

Brake Warning System Description and Operation
Brake System Indicator
The IPC illuminates the brake indicator when the following occurs:
^ The Body Control Module (BCM) detects that the park brake is engaged. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the BCM requesting illumination. If the vehicle is shifted out of park with the park brake engaged, the BCM activates an audible warning.
^ The IPC detects a low brake fluid condition (signal circuit is low).
^ The IPC performs the displays test at the start of each ignition cycle. The indicator illuminates for approximately 3 seconds.
