Does the dashboard light up when stepping on the brake?
1 Answers
When the brake pedal is pressed and the dashboard light comes on, it may indicate a brake pad warning. Normally, this indicator light remains off, but it illuminates when there is a malfunction or excessive wear in the brake discs. Below is some information about dashboard lights: 1. Yellow light: Yellow is a warning light, but it indicates a less severe issue. You can continue driving, but immediate inspection and repair are needed. 2. Green light: Green is an indicator light. In automatic transmissions, to prevent accidental gear shifting, there is a brake lock that locks the gear if the brake is not pressed. Simultaneously, the green light on the dashboard will illuminate and can be turned off by pressing the brake. Additional information: The principle of braking is to convert the vehicle's kinetic energy into heat energy, which is then dissipated. The kinetic energy comes from the power provided by the engine, which requires fuel combustion to generate the necessary work.
