I got this message about the same time my e-brakes failed. I've replaced front and rear pads and the e-brakes. The warning message (and that irritating dinging noise) is still there.
I've tried pulling off the battery leads...and the radio didn't even lose its presets, much less reset the message. Brake fluid level is good. Everything seems to be working correctly. So...does anyone know how to reset this message?
If you pull the negative battery cable for 20 minutes minimum and you still have error messages and radio presets then you have more than one problem.:undecided
Thanks for the welcome and the response, Blazernut. I can't say for certain that I had the battery lead off for 20 minutes. I'll have another go at that.
There is another factor to weigh in, but as it's been an issue for several months, I didn't think it would be related. I had a bad wheel bearing, and had a shop replace it. When we got it back, the ABS light was on. The shop manager said his mechanic didn't get the sensor out of the old hub, and we'd have to come back in to get a new one.
I'll spare you the rest of the details going back-and-forth with that shop, but regardless...the ABS light was on for a few months, then my current issue started recently, with the red brake light in the display and the "service brake system" message. I assumed these were separate warnings, but perhaps they're related.
You erase ANY message on the DIC by holding down the erase switch on the steering wheel for several seconds while the message is being displayed. You do NOT need to disconnect the battery.
where is that erase switch on the steering wheel, I have a 2008 chevy pickup?
