information on the headlight

controls.

page 165)

The left or right turn signal light

blinks when you signal a lane change

or turn. If the light does not blink or

blinks rapidly, it usually means one

of the turn signal bulbs is burned out

(see page 233 ). Replace the bulb as

soon as possible, since other drivers

cannot see that you are signalling.

If it comes on at any other time,

there is a problem in the ABS. If this

happens, take the vehicle to your

dealer to have it checked. With the

light on, your vehicle still has normal

braking ability but no anti-lock.

comes on with reduced brightness

when the Daytime Running Lights

(DRL) are on (see page 60).
