What Causes the Exclamation Mark in the Reversing Camera?
1 Answers
There are five possible scenarios when an exclamation mark appears on the car dashboard: general malfunction, automatic transmission failure, brake system failure, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting system malfunction. Below is a detailed analysis of these five situations: General Malfunction: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's general performance, components, or functions. Common causes include parking sensor failure, fuel cut-off system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor malfunction. It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the problem. Automatic Transmission Failure: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside is the automatic transmission warning light, indicating a transmission malfunction or low transmission fluid level. The transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Brake System Failure: An exclamation mark inside a circle with parentheses represents a brake system warning, typically indicating brake system failure or low brake fluid level. Immediate inspection and repair of the brake system are required to prevent accidents. Abnormal Tire Pressure: An exclamation mark below a horizontal line inside parentheses is the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which illuminates when the tire pressure is too low. Check the tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting System Malfunction: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the lighting system malfunction indicator, signaling a fault in one of the vehicle's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or conduct a self-check focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue.
