Can You Continue Driving When the Warning Light Is On?
1 Answers
When the car's warning light comes on, you should immediately stop and inspect the vehicle to determine whether it's safe to continue driving. There are generally two scenarios when a warning light illuminates: 1. A yellow symbol light indicates an engine malfunction. 2. A red symbol light signifies a serious engine issue that requires immediate maintenance. For these two situations, the specific solutions are as follows: 1. Check the oil pressure warning light and the temperature gauge. If the oil pressure gauge and temperature gauge show no issues, you can continue driving, but you should control your speed and immediately head to the nearest repair facility. 2. If the oil pressure gauge and temperature warning light come on, it indicates a clear vehicle malfunction. You should pull over immediately and call for assistance.
