Can You Still Drive When the Yellow Water Faucet Warning Light Comes On?
1 Answers
You should not drive when the yellow water faucet warning light comes on. The water faucet symbol is the engine malfunction indicator. When this light turns yellow, it indicates there is an issue with the engine, though it is not extremely severe since it's a yellow light. If it were a red light, the situation would be much more serious, requiring immediate stopping and inspection—if the problem cannot be identified, calling for roadside assistance is necessary. When the engine malfunction light is on, if the temperature gauge and oil pressure warning light have not activated, the vehicle can still be driven, but you must proceed with caution at a reduced speed and seek the nearest auto repair shop for diagnostics. However, if the engine temperature is too high or the oil pressure warning light also illuminates, and you clearly feel the vehicle malfunctioning, you should pull over immediately and request assistance.
