What does the exclamation mark on the Magotan speedometer mean?
1 Answers
There are five possible scenarios when an exclamation mark appears on the car dashboard: general malfunction, automatic transmission failure, brake system failure, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting malfunction. Below is a detailed analysis of these five situations: General Malfunction: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside indicates a general performance or component/function failure in the vehicle. Common issues include parking sensor failure, fuel cutoff system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor failure. It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the problem. Automatic Transmission Failure: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside is the automatic transmission warning light, indicating a transmission malfunction or low transmission fluid level. Transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Brake System Failure: A circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle represents a brake system warning, typically signaling brake system failure or low brake fluid level. Immediate inspection of the brake system is required to avoid accidents. Abnormal Tire Pressure: A horizontal line with parentheses below and an exclamation mark in the middle is the tire pressure monitoring warning light. This light illuminates when the tire pressure is too low. Check the tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting Malfunction: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the lighting malfunction indicator, signaling a fault in one of the vehicle'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 lighting to identify the issue.
