Brake
System Warning Light
Your
Geo’s hydraulic brake system is
divided into two parts.
If
one part isn’t
working, the other part can still work
and stop you.
For
good braking, though,
you
need both parts working well.
Your
vehicle also has rear wheel
anti-lock brakes. If the warning light
goes on, there could be a brake problem
with
either your regular
or
rear wheel
anti-lock brakes,
or
both. Have your
brake system inspected right away.
This light should come
on
as you start
the
vehicle.
If
it doesn’t come on then,
have
it
fixed
so
it
will be ready to
warn
you if there’s a problem.
This light will also come on when you
set your parking brake, and it
will
stay
on if your parking brake doesn’t release
fully. If it stays on after your parking
brake is fully released, it means you
may have a brake problem.
If the light comes on while driving, pull
off the road and stop carefully. You
may notice that the pedal is harder to
push.
Or,
the pedal may go closer to the
floor.
It may take longer to stop. If the
light is still on, have the vehicle towed
for service. (See “Towing
Your
Vehicle”
in
the Index.)

Your
brake system may
not
be working properly if the
brake warning light
is
on. Driving
with the brake warning light on
can lead to an accident.
If
the light
is still on after you’ve pulled off
the road and stopped carefully,
have the vehicle towed for service.
