What does the exclamation mark in a yellow symbol mean?

[McAriel]

When a yellow exclamation mark appears on the car dashboard, there are four possible scenarios: general faults, automatic transmission faults, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting faults. Below is a detailed analysis of these four situations: General Faults: An exclamation mark inside a triangle indicates a malfunction in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Common issues include parking sensor failure, fuel cut-off system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor failure. It is recommended to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic Transmission Fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a transmission issue or low transmission fluid level. The transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Abnormal Tire Pressure: An exclamation mark below a horizontal line inside parentheses represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light. This light turns on when the tire pressure is too low. Check the tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the lighting fault indicator, signaling a malfunction in one of the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or conduct a self-check focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue. Additionally, a red exclamation mark inside a circle with parentheses indicates a brake system warning, which could mean a brake system malfunction or low brake fluid level. Immediate inspection of the brake system is necessary to avoid accidents.
