If the brake warning lamp is lit, it could be you just forgot to release the parking brake (emergency).However, if the brake rod is lowered but the light on, maybe there is something wrong with your car.Brake warning light stays on to indicate that the brake hydraulic pressure was lost or a leak in the brake system.Please check your car's brake fluid level. Adding brake fluid can solve the problem.But if there is a leak, the oil that you just added will soon disappear and the warning light will come back on.Oil leaks can cause brake failure. So do not use the car until the problem is detected and repaired.Leakage can occur in brake hoses, disc brake calipers, drum brake wheel cylinders or the master cylinder itself.Wet spots on the hose connections will be a clue about the leaks that need fixing.Leakage of brake fluid can also contaminate the brake system as a whole. Brake shoes that have been contaminated can not be dry and must be replaced.ABS brake warning lightOn vehicles equipped with ABS brakes, there is a second warning light to warn if there are problems in the ABS system.ABS light will illuminate when the machine is turned on to check. Shortly after the engine warning lights would be switched off.If the ABS warning light stays on, there's something wrong with your car's ABS system.What happens next depends on the mechanism of the car. In most cases, the ABS system will automatically deactivated if the warning light stays on.This will not affect the braking system, only in times of emergency, the ABS will not work.CAUTION:
If the brake warning light also flashes in unison with the ABS warning
light, then do not drive a car because of a problem on your car's
braking system.Analyze the cause of the ABS warning lights are lit requires expertise. Should take the car to the garage that you trust.Labels: Driving Tips
