What does the exclamation mark on a car mean?

[Archer]

There are five situations when an exclamation mark appears on the car dashboard, namely general faults, automatic transmission faults, brake system faults, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting faults. The following is a detailed analysis of these five situations: General faults: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside. If this symbol lights up, it indicates a fault in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Main issues include parking sensor failure, fuel cut-off system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, engine oil pressure sensor failure, etc. It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic transmission faults: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside. This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a fault in the transmission or that the transmission lubricant is below the normal range. The transmission oil should be replaced promptly. Brake system faults: A circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle. This represents a brake system warning, mainly indicating a fault in the brake system or low brake fluid level. The brake system should be inspected immediately to avoid accidents. Abnormal tire pressure: A horizontal line with parentheses and an exclamation mark below it. This represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which lights up when the car's tire pressure is too low. The tire pressure should be checked and restored to the normal range. Lighting faults: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. This is the lighting fault indicator, indicating a malfunction in one of the car lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or conduct a self-inspection, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lighting, to identify the problem.
