Yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the light failure indicator, indicating that there is a fault with the car lights. Solution: Go to a 4S shop for inspection and repair as soon as possible, or check by yourself, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lighting to see where the problem lies. The exclamation mark is a common fault indication in cars. In addition to the yellow bulb with an exclamation mark, there are four other forms of exclamation marks: an exclamation mark inside a triangle, an exclamation mark inside a yellow gear, an exclamation mark in the middle of a bracket circle, and an exclamation mark in the middle of a bracket with a line below. The following is a detailed analysis: General fault: An exclamation mark inside a triangle. If this symbol lights up, it indicates a fault in the car's general performance or components and functions. Mainly includes parking sensor failure, fuel cut-off system intervention or failure, external light failure, engine oil pressure sensor failure, etc. It is necessary to go to a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic transmission fault: An exclamation mark inside a yellow gear. This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating that there is a fault in the transmission or the transmission lubricating oil is below the normal range. The transmission oil needs to be replaced in time. Brake system fault: An exclamation mark in the middle of a bracket circle. This represents a warning of the brake system, mainly including brake system failure and low brake fluid level. The brake system needs to be repaired immediately to avoid accidents. Tire pressure abnormality: An exclamation mark in the middle of a bracket with a line below. This represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light. When the car's tire pressure is too low, this warning light will light up. It is necessary to check the car's tire pressure and restore it to the normal range.
