What does it mean when the SVS light on the dashboard is on?
1 Answers
The SVS light on the dashboard indicates that the engine control unit has detected an error signal from a sensor or that the sensor has exceeded its standard operating parameters. When the ignition is turned on, the SVS indicator light will illuminate for an automatic check and then turn off after a few seconds, which is normal. If the SVS light remains on, you can try to start the engine. If the engine fails to start, it could be due to a malfunctioning fuel pump, which prevents proper fuel supply to the engine. If the engine starts, it might indicate a fault in another sensor. In this case, the vehicle can still be driven, but the malfunction may affect normal operation, such as increased fuel consumption or engine shaking.
