What might happen if the lamp malfunction stays on after the bulb check?

If the malfunction lamp stays on after the bulb check, one possible reason could be that you may have lost ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) control at one or more wheels. The ABS system helps prevent the wheels from locking up during braking, providing better control and stability. If the malfunction lamp remains illuminated, it suggests a fault or failure in the ABS system, which could result in a loss of ABS control at certain wheels.
