What does an exclamation mark inside a bracket indicate as a warning light?
1 Answers
An exclamation mark in red (specifically, an exclamation mark inside a circled bracket) represents a warning for the braking system, primarily indicating either a malfunction in the braking system or low brake fluid level. Solution: Immediate inspection and repair of the braking system are required to prevent accidents. Apart from the red exclamation mark indicating braking system issues, other exclamation marks on a car's dashboard are yellow, representing general faults, automatic transmission issues, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting system faults. Below is a detailed analysis of these four scenarios: General Fault: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside. If this symbol lights up, it indicates a malfunction in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Common issues include parking sensor failure, fuel cutoff system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor malfunction. A visit to a 4S shop is necessary to diagnose and address the fault. Automatic Transmission Fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside. This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a problem with the transmission or that the transmission fluid is below the normal range. Transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Abnormal Tire Pressure: An exclamation mark with a line underneath inside a bracket. This 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 Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. This is the lighting fault indicator, signaling a malfunction in one of the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop as soon as possible for inspection and repair. Alternatively, you can perform a self-check, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue.
