Auto Hold Indicator

OK to driveTypically Green or White on the dash

Auto hold is active — the brakes stay applied at standstill so you can take your foot off the pedal.

What it means

Auto hold keeps the service brakes applied after you stop, releasing when you press the accelerator. The light confirms the feature is on. It works with the electronic parking brake and is a convenience feature, not a fault indicator.

Can you keep driving?

Yes — this is purely informational.

What to do now

  1. 1

    Nothing required — the brakes release automatically when you accelerate.

  2. 2

    If auto hold faults (usually alongside an EPB warning), the parking brake system needs a scan.

Likely causes

  • Auto hold switched on

Typical fix cost

$0
