ABSTRACT:
A brake status indicating system including a plurality of serially connected brake sensors having a first illumination source and a second illumination source connected to a voltage source through a first resistance and a second resistance where both the first and second illumination sources are activated when the brake sensors are within a normal operating range and where both the first and second illumination sources are deactivated when any one of the brake sensors are outside of a normal operating range. The second illumination source remains deactivated if a brake wear sensor is shorted to ground and the first resistance limits the electrical current flowing through a wheel bearing.
