Frequently asked questions
2025 Honda Ridgeline Trailsport shown

The ABS and brake lights on a Honda Ridgeline indicate that the anti-lock braking system or the hydraulic brake system needs attention. The amber ABS light means the anti-lock system has switched itself off, most often because of a wheel-speed sensor fault; normal braking remains, but the wheels can lock during a hard stop. The red BRAKE light or circle with an exclamation point may indicate an applied parking brake, low brake fluid, or a hydraulic system fault. Coggin Honda Orlando in Orlando, FL, provides ABS and brake light diagnosis for Honda Ridgeline crew cab models across all model years, helping drivers identify whether the warning involves a sensor, fluid, pads, or another named brake-system concern.

Coggin Honda Orlando is located at 11051 S. Orange Blossom Trail, Orlando, FL 32837.

What the ABS and brake lights mean on a Honda Ridgeline

The amber ABS warning light stays on after the Honda Ridgeline starts when the anti-lock system has switched itself off. Most often, the service diagnosis traces this warning to a wheel-speed sensor fault. Normal braking remains with the ABS light on, but the wheels can lock in a hard stop, so the warning still deserves prompt attention. The red BRAKE light, or a circle with an exclamation point, has a different meaning. It can indicate that the parking brake is applied, the brake fluid is low, or the hydraulic system has a fault. Low fluid usually points to worn pads or a leak. If both lights are on, or if the red light appears with a soft pedal, the vehicle should not be driven.

What the diagnosis covers at Coggin Honda Orlando

ABS and brake light service at Coggin Honda Orlando begins with a scan of the anti-lock brake module for stored trouble codes. The service team tests the wheel-speed sensors, their wiring, and the tone rings to trace an ABS warning rather than guess at its source. The inspection also covers brake fluid level and condition, pad wear, and the parking brake switch. These checks help distinguish a sensor concern from a fluid, pad, parking-brake, or hydraulic-system issue. Drivers can schedule service at Coggin Honda Orlando for an inspection of the warning and the related brake components.
