Exclamation Point! dash light

After having the brake recall done in the Wildwood Alliance shop, it took about 200 miles before my ABS lite came on, and right next to that light was the exclamation point, inside a gear, light. Parking brake light?

I did get under the rig and clean the sensors,lot of grease on the rear left one but, other than that, all seemed ok. Brake fluid level is fine. Needless to say, the lights are still on. Brakes are working fine except, of course, the ABS system.

Any hints as to the next step? Thanks.

Did you drive the coach after you cleaned and reinserted the sensors? Normally a ABS light will not go out until the coach is driven and the brakes applied. When I had my front rotors replaced the ABS light came on, went back to the shop and they reinserted one of the sensors. Light was on until I drove the coach about 30 feet and applied the brakes.

on a normal car, the gear with the ! inside is usually your transmission or rearend (depending on mfg) telling you there is a code tripped on one of the two. never seen one on a MH but that is my .02

good luck

Yes, the rig has been driven about 2000 miles since the sensor cleaning.

I've been searching through my Workhorse manual to find out just what the light with the exclamation point indicates. There are two connected circles, and the ! symbol is in one of the circles. The second circle has a P in it, if I am recalling it correctly. MH is in storage right now and I'm running on memory.

So, I figure the P and ! lite is connected with the parking brake system. The only problem with that assumption is that my highbeam light shows up on the dash when the parking brake is applied. Releasing the parking brake extinguishes the highbeam light.

If there is anyone with a 2002 W22 analog dash, maybe they could explain the lights. My WH manual is no help.

Don't you just love international symbols? They were used because theoretically everyone could understand them! BTW- I have no idea what's wrong with your brakes...sorry.

According to my Workhorse manual (note that I have a 2010) the gear with the exclamation mark is the transmission warning light, a circle with a P is the parking brake warning light, and a circle with a curved line on each side --(O)-- (like drum brake pads) with a P is the brake warning light. A circle with the brake pads and ABS in the middle is the ABS warning light. Good luck.
