Abs Indicator: Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Dodge Sprinter. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

An Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. The ABS indicator is located near the lower edge of the instrument cluster, to the right of the multi-function indicator display. The ABS indicator consists of the International Control and Display Symbol icon for "Failure of Anti-lock Braking System" imprinted within a rectangular cutout in the opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents the indicator from being clearly visible when it is not illuminated. An amber Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the opaque layer of the overlay causes the icon to appear silhouetted against an amber field through the translucent outer layer of the overlay when the indicator is illuminated from behind by the LED, which is soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board. The ABS indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
