What does it mean when the t/c indicator light on the car dashboard is on?
1 Answers
The t/c indicator light on the car dashboard being illuminated may indicate a fault with the intake or exhaust camshaft position sensor or an issue with the wiring harness of one of the four wheels. The meanings of various indicator lights on the car dashboard are as follows: 1. Engine oil pressure indicator light: This light serves as the oil warning light. If it remains lit, it indicates that the oil level and pressure are below the standard value. Continuing to drive under these conditions can prevent the oil from providing proper lubrication, leading to unpredictable wear. In this case, an appropriate amount of oil should be added, and the light should turn off once the oil level is normal. 2. Brake system fault light: When this light is on, first check if the handbrake is fully released. If the light remains on after releasing the handbrake, inspect whether the brake fluid level is normal or if the brake pads are too thin. 3. Coolant temperature warning light: This light displays the temperature of the engine coolant. The engine is the heart of the car and is most vulnerable to lack of water or oil. If the engine coolant temperature is too high, continuing to drive can cause irreparable damage such as cylinder block deformation. In such cases, the owner should promptly add coolant.
