It may take longer to

is
still on, have the
vehicle towed for service. (See

The brake system warning 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

Anti-Lock
Brake
System
Warning
Light
With anti-lock, this light
will
goon
when you start your engine and
it will
stay on for three
seconds.
That’s
normal. If the light doesn’t come on,
have
it
fixed
so
it
will be ready to warn
you if there is a problem.
If the light flashes when you’re driving,
you don’t have anti-lock brakes and
there’s
a problem with your regular
brakes. 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. Have the vehicle towed for
service. (See
Towing
Your
Vehicle
in
the
Index.)
If
the anti-lock brake system warning
light stays on longer than normal after
you’ve started your engine, turn
the
ignition off. Or, if the light comes on
and stays on when you’re driving, stop
as soon as possible and
turn
the
ignition
off. Then
start
the engine again to reset
the system. If the light still stays on, or
comes on again while you’re driving,
your Oldsmobile needs service.
If
the
light is
on
but not flashing and
the
regular brake system warning light isn’t
on,
you
still have brakes,
but you don’t
have anti-lock brakes.
