1 Answers
The red color signifies a very serious issue in the corresponding system. If this occurs, do not continue driving. Pull over immediately and seek professional assistance by phone to prevent unpredictable risks to both the vehicle and personal safety. The following is a detailed explanation of the exclamation mark warning light: General Fault: A triangle with an exclamation mark indicates a fault in the vehicle's general performance, components, or functions. Common causes include parking sensor failure, fuel cutoff system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor failure. 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 warning light, indicating a transmission fault or low transmission fluid. Replace the transmission fluid promptly. Brake System Fault: A circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle represents a brake system warning, typically due to brake system failure or low brake fluid. Inspect the brake system immediately to avoid accidents. Tire Pressure Anomaly: An exclamation mark with a horizontal line below parentheses is the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which illuminates when tire pressure is too low. Check and restore tire pressure to the normal range. Lighting Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the lighting fault indicator, signaling a malfunction in the vehicle's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection or check common bulbs like turn signals, fog lights, or interior lights yourself to locate the issue. Additionally, during daily vehicle use, dashboard warning lights are categorized into yellow and red for different severity levels: Yellow indicates a fault in the corresponding system that is not critical. Reduce speed and proceed to a repair facility to eliminate potential hazards. Note: When starting the vehicle, all lights will briefly illuminate for system self-check and then turn off. If a light does not illuminate during startup, remains lit, or activates while driving, it indicates a fault in the related system. Seek professional help promptly for inspection and hazard elimination.
