Brake System Warning Light

This warning has the following functions:

Parking brake warning

The light comes on when the parking

brake is applied with the ignition switch

in the START or ON position. It goes off

when the parking brake is fully released.

Low brake fluid level warning/

Electronic brake force distribution

system warning

If the light stays on after the parking brake

is fully released, you may have a brake

problem.

Drive to the side of the road and park off

the right-of-way.

Low brake fluid level warning

You may notice that the pedal is harder to

push or that it may go closer to the floor.

In either case, it will take longer to stop

the vehicle.

1. With the engine stopped, check the

brake fluid level immediately and add

fluid as required (page 8-17).

2. After adding fluid, check the light

again.

If the warning light remains on, or if the

brakes do not operate properly, do not

drive the vehicle. Have it towed to an

Authorized Mazda Dealer.

Even if the light goes off, have your brake

system inspected as soon as possible.

Electronic brake force distribution

system warning

If the electronic brake force distribution

control unit determines that some

components are operating incorrectly, the

control unit may turn the brake system

warning light on.

In this case, the ABS warning light comes

on at the same time (page 5-26).

Brake Warning Light:

Driving with the brake system

warning light on is dangerous. It

indicates that your brakes may not

work at all or that they could

completely fail at any time. If this

light remains on, have the brakes

inspected immediately. Don’t drive

with this light on, and contact an

Authorized Mazda Dealer to have the

brakes inspected as soon as possible.

ABS Warning Light and Brake

Warning Light on at the Same Time:

Driving when the brake system

warning light and ABS warning light

are on at the same time is dangerous.

When both lights are on, the rear

wheels could lock more quickly in an

emergency stop than under normal

circumstances.

Don’t drive with both lights on, and

contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer

to have the brakes inspected as soon

as possible.
