Specifically, the ABS indicator lamp does not remain activated when a malfunction exists, whenever the vehicle’s ignition switch is in the on (run) position, and the vehicle is in motion. FMVSS 1 : 121 – Air brake systems FMVSS 2 : NR Description of the Safety Risk : If a fault exists with the ABS components and the lamp does not stay illuminated when the vehicle is in motion, during an event that requires ABS, a vehicle operator may not realize there is a fault with the ABS system, which can increase the risk of a vehicle crash that may result in property damage or personal injury. Description of the Cause : When there is an active ABS fault and when the vehicle is in motion, the brake system Electronic Control Unit (ECU) blink code function interfered with the ABS indicator lamp signal broadcast over the Controller Area Network (CAN) which causes the ABS indicator lamp to turn off. The ABS indicator lamp then re-illuminates when the vehicle comes to a stop. Identification of Any Warning that can Occur : A fault in the ABS system will also illuminate the Traction Control and Stability Control indicator lamps. These will remain illuminated while the vehicle is in motion.
