Guest Isher Guests Posted 09/07/03 09:12 AM Share Posted 09/07/03 09:12 AM Hi guys,I have noticed that the lights behind my ABS and Brake waring lights are constantly (albeit very, very dimly) illuminated all the time when the car is running.When I start the car, all the lights come on as normal, the ABS light goes out after the appropriate amount of time and the brake light go out when I release the hand brake, but, you can clearly see that both warning lights remain very slightly lit.At first I thought I was imagining it but now I am certain that they are indeed lit.Could anyone else confirm/deny if this is the case in their XRT?Regards,Isher Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/4266-dash-brake-and-abs-warning-lights/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ratboy_ledg Guests Posted 09/07/03 11:11 AM Share Posted 09/07/03 11:11 AM If your really that worried take it to a dealership but I think you should lay off the drugs...?The only thing it could be is a dtc in the abs or the dash is slightly unaligned.sweet as but hey have another look when your straight..

Guest Isher Guests Posted 09/07/03 12:39 PM Share Posted 09/07/03 12:39 PM Well first things first...1. I'm not on drugs, I'm serious... (well at the moment anyway...). Richdave are you taking the piss or is your car like mine? I'd take soem picks to prove it but I dont thik it woud show up very well.2. Some erratta: It is not the brake light and the ABS light it is the Caution Light (I think) the one with the exclamination mark in brackets to the left of the park brake light and the ABS light.Both of these lights are orange in colour so I thought it might have someting to do with their source etc.Both are definetly on, at a very dim level when my car is running.I'm not worrried about it enough to bother taking the car back to the dealer. That can wait for the 3000km check up which should be in the next 3-4 weeks.
