Explanation
The brake warning lamp is an important safety feature that indicates the condition of the braking system. It should go out when the parking brake is released, which means that the brake system is in good working condition. If the lamp illuminates when the foot brake pedal is pressed, it indicates a defect in the brake system, and the vehicle should not be driven.
