BRAKE PAD WARNING LIGHT

Note. Most vehicles are equipped with a Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) or check engine light. If light comes on and remains on while driving, the vehicle requires some type of repair. See appropriate service and repair information. After repairing fault(s) and clearing fault code(s), the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) or check engine light should go out. Some models may use a dual-function indicator light, which is also used to indicate emission component service is due. After performing required service, reset indicator light.

Note. Brake pad warning light should go out after replacement of brake pad thickness sensor. If warning light does not go out, turn ignition on, engine off, for 30-45 seconds. Warning light should go out. If the above procedure is not successful, connect vehicle to DIS tester, access Instrument Cluster/IKE, then "clear fault memory".

Note. The base instrument cluster OIL SERVICE INSPECTION display is located on the bottom of the cluster, to the right of center. The base cluster is also equipped with a graphic display of the car that shows if a door or the trunk lid is open. The high instrument cluster OIL SERVICE INSPECTION display is located on the bottom of the cluster, to the left of center.

Note. To determine the appropriate reset procedure, refer to BRAKE PAD WARNING LIGHT RESET INDEX . Only vehicles listed in this index have a specific brake pad warning light reset procedure. For other vehicles, perform PROCEDURE 1 first. If light does not reset, perform PROCEDURE 2 . If the above procedures are not successful, connect vehicle to DIS tester, access Instrument Cluster/IKE, then "clear fault memory".

TPMS Status indicator on the Control Display

The color of the tires represents the status of the tires and the system. TPM takes into account that tire pressures change while the vehicle is being driven. The tire pressures do not need to be corrected unless the TPM instructs you to do so by means of color indicators.

  1. Green: The tire inflation pressure corresponds to the established target value. "TPM active" appears on the Control Display.
  2. One Wheel Yellow: There is a flat tire or substantial loss of tire pressure in the indicated tire. A message appears on the Control Display.
  3. All Wheels Yellow: There is a flat tire or substantial loss of tire pressure in several tires. A message appears on the Control Display.
  4. Gray: The system cannot detect a puncture. Possible reasons for this: TPM is being reset. Temporary malfunction caused by systems or devices using the same radio frequency. Malfunction.

Reset Procedure

  1. Using the iDrive MENU button, choose
