As far as ABS-ECU stores any diagnostic trouble code related to the wheel speed sensor malfunction or the motor malfunction as past trouble, ABS-ECU continues illuminating the ABS warning light until it verifies that the malfunction for that code is resolved (startup check).
    • *2 : The brake warning light does not turn OFF when the parking brake is applied or the brake fluid level is lowered.
