What Causes the Yellow Exclamation Mark in Honda Cars?

[Camilla]

The appearance of an exclamation mark on the car dashboard indicates an abnormality or malfunction in the corresponding system. There are many indicator lights on the car dashboard with exclamation marks, such as the tire pressure indicator, lighting fault indicator, steering system fault indicator, brake system fault light, transmission fault indicator, and wiper fault indicator. Below is a detailed explanation of the exclamation mark warning lights: General Faults: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside. If this symbol lights up, it indicates a fault in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Common causes include parking sensor faults, fuel cutoff system intervention or faults, external light faults, engine oil pressure sensor faults, etc. It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic Transmission Fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside. This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a transmission fault or transmission fluid level below the normal range. The transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Brake System Fault: An exclamation mark inside a circle with parentheses. This represents a brake system warning, mainly indicating a brake system fault or low brake fluid level. The brake system should be inspected immediately to avoid accidents. Tire Pressure Abnormality: An exclamation mark with a horizontal line below parentheses. This represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which lights up when the car's tire pressure is too low. Check the tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. This is the lighting fault indicator, indicating a fault in the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or check yourself by focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue. In addition, during daily vehicle use, the fault lights displayed on the dashboard are divided into two colors: yellow and red: Yellow indicates a fault in the corresponding system, but the problem is not very serious. Reduce speed and proceed to the nearest repair point to eliminate potential safety hazards. Red indicates a very serious problem in the corresponding system. If this occurs, do not continue driving. Pull over immediately and call for professional assistance to prevent unpredictable risks to the vehicle and personal safety. It is important to note that when the car is started, all lights will illuminate as the system performs an automatic check. After the check is completed, the lights will turn off automatically. If a light does not illuminate when the ignition is turned on, remains lit, or lights up while driving, it indicates a fault in the related system. In such cases, seek professional assistance promptly to inspect and eliminate potential safety hazards.
