NOTE: The hill hold indicator light always illuminates when the hill hold is in the ON mode. 1. When warning lights or indicator lights do not illuminate in accordance with this illumination pattern, there must be an electrical malfunction. 2. When the warning lights or indicator lights remain constantly OFF, check the combination meter circuit.

When the ABS warning light, VDC OFF indicator light, VDC warning light & VDC indicator light, and hill hold indicator light do not go off, check the combination meter circuit or CAN communication circuit.

However, while these lights are on, the functions with their warning lights illuminated do not operate. • It may take several minutes before the VDC warning light & VDC indicator light goes off, if the vehicle is parked under low temperature for a specified time. This is not defective because it is resulted from low engine coolant temperature. Perform the Clear Memory Mode because DTC may be recorded at this time. Clear Memory Mode • With the vehicle jack-up/lift-up or set on free rollers, when the wheels lock or spin after starting the engine, ABS warning light, and VDC warning light & VDC indicator light may illuminate because VDCCM&H/U detects the abnormal conditions from ABS wheel speed sensor or longitudinal G sensor. In this case, this is not a malfunction. Perform the Clear Memory Mode. Clear Memory Mode • When operation and release of the electronic parking brake is repeated excessively, the electronic parking brake warning light may illuminate or the electronic parking brake operation indicator light may blink and then the parking brake switch operation may not be accepted; this is not malfunction. |
