How to Eliminate the Yellow Exclamation Mark on Haval H6?
2 Answers
When a yellow exclamation mark appears on the car dashboard, there are 4 possible scenarios: general fault, automatic transmission fault, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting fault. Below is a detailed analysis of each situation: General Fault: A triangle with an exclamation mark indicates a general performance or component malfunction in the car. Common issues include parking sensor failure, fuel cutoff system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor failure. It is recommended to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic Transmission Fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a transmission issue or low transmission fluid level. Immediate replacement of transmission fluid is necessary. Abnormal Tire Pressure: An exclamation mark under a horizontal line in brackets represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which illuminates when the tire pressure is too low. Check the tire pressure and adjust it back to the normal range. Lighting Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the lighting fault indicator, signaling a malfunction in the car lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or perform a self-check focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue. There is also a red exclamation mark inside a circle with brackets, which indicates a warning for the braking system, mainly due to brake system failure or low brake fluid level. Immediate inspection of the braking system is required to avoid accidents.
As an owner of a Haval H6, I've encountered this yellow exclamation mark warning light several times. The most common cause is low tire pressure, which triggers a small exclamation mark icon on the dashboard. The solution is simple: First, pull over safely and use a tire pressure gauge to check each tire. The recommended pressure for Haval H6 is around 230kPa - if it's too low, inflate to the proper level. After inflation, start the car and locate the reset button near the lower left side of the steering wheel. Hold it for a few seconds to clear the warning. I make it a habit to check monthly since temperature changes affect tire pressure. Another possible cause is insufficient spare tire pressure, so check that too. If the light persists, it might be a sensor issue - a quick visit to the 4S shop would help. Safety comes first - I always address this warning immediately to prevent any driving issues.
