Kenworth ABS telltale was not enabled on certain vehicles, and will not illuminate even during an ABS malfunction.
The short version
PACCAR Incorporated reported a problem with the antilock/traction control/electronic limited slip abs warning light. Here is what owners need to know.
The ABS telltale was not enabled on certain vehicles, and will not illuminate even during an ABS malfunction. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 105, "Hydraulic and Electric Brake Systems."
An inoperational ABS system may not notify the driver of a malfunction, increasing the risk of a crash.
Take it to a dealer — they will perform a complete software update to correct the parameter setting, free of charge.
