Kawasaki Ninja Owners Manual / General information / Meter instruments / Warning/Indicator Lights / ABS Indicator Light (For models equipped with KIBS)

: Normally
the ABS indicator light goes on when the ignition switch is turned “ON” and goes off shortly after the motorcycle starts moving. If the ABS is normal, it stays off. If the ABS indicator light shows any of the following, a fault or faults may have taken place in the ABS. You should have the ABS checked by an authorized Kawasaki dealer.

The light does not go on when the ignition switch is turned “ON”.
The light remains lit after the motorcycle starts moving.
The light goes on while riding.

Remember that the ABS does not function when the indicator light is on. If the ABS fails, the front and rear brakes work normally as a conventional brake system.

NOTE

The ABS indicator light may go on under certain riding conditions (ex. The front or rear wheel spins). In this case, first turn the ignition key to “OFF”, and then back to “ON”. This should reset the ABS indicator light, but if it remains lit after the motorcycle runs at approximately 5 km/h (3.1 mph) or more for more than one minute , you should have the ABS checked by an authorized Kawasaki dealer.
When the ABS indicator light is blinking, the ABS has been in the low voltage mode (insufficient battery voltage). When it is in the low voltage mode, the KIBS system does not function, but the ABS functions. To recover the KIBS system, turn the ignition switch OFF and charge the battery. If the battery is fully charged and the low voltage mode continues, you should have the KIBS checked by an authorized Kawasaki dealer.
