What does Cadillac AFL light maintenance mean?
1 Answers
AFL stands for Adaptive Front Lighting. A maintenance prompt usually appears when making U-turns or sharp turns, with the steering wheel fully turned (automatic steering with turn signals) for more than a few seconds. Occasionally, the prompt may appear but will disappear after restarting the vehicle, so there's no need to worry too much. If restarting doesn't resolve the issue, it could indicate a problem with the sensor or other components, and it's recommended to visit a 4S shop or repair facility for inspection. Below is relevant information about automotive sensors: 1. Adaptive Headlights: Adaptive headlights in cars are equipped with multiple sensors. If any of these sensors malfunction, it can prevent the adaptive headlights from functioning properly. Many modern vehicles come with adaptive headlights that automatically adjust their height and angle based on load. 2. Maintenance: The AFL light cannot be manually reset by the owner and will only disappear after the vehicle is inspected and repaired at a 4S shop. This issue often occurs in older vehicles that have been driven for several years. Sometimes, it's not a problem with other circuits or sensors; the AFL light may also appear as an early warning that the headlights are about to fail. Headlights are crucial for nighttime driving safety, so it's important for owners to promptly visit a professional repair shop if this issue arises.
