What does it mean when the car's i light is on?

The car's i light being on indicates that there is information waiting to be processed by the onboard computer. It usually lights up as a yellow or red light. A yellow light indicates a warning, meaning the information is important and needs to be checked promptly; a red light indicates a serious warning, meaning the information is urgent, and the car may have a malfunction that could affect driving safety, requiring immediate stopping to check and address the issue. Warning lights: These have warning functions, such as the fuel indicator light, door status indicator light, seatbelt indicator light, etc. Generally, warning lights turn off after the driver performs the corresponding action. For example, the seatbelt indicator light will turn off after the seatbelt is fastened. Fault indicator lights: These are also the most important indicator lights, such as the generator fault indicator light, ABS fault indicator light, transmission fault indicator light, etc. Usually, these fault indicator lights rarely light up, or they may light up briefly when starting the engine and then turn off. If a fault indicator light stays on continuously and is accompanied by a warning sound, it indicates that the vehicle has already developed a fault or abnormality. Never underestimate fault indicator lights. Ignoring them could potentially damage the vehicle and seriously endanger driving safety. If a fault indicator light stays on continuously, immediate inspection and repair are required.
