1 Answers
The red exclamation warning light indicates a brake system malfunction. This is the brake warning light, primarily signaling that the handbrake is not fully released or there is an issue with the handbrake. When the brake system warning light comes on: You must stop and inspect the vehicle immediately, regardless of the situation. The importance of the brake system is unquestionable, and any issues related to braking must be addressed promptly. The principle of the brake system is to generate significant friction, converting the vehicle's kinetic energy into heat energy. Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another or transferred from one object to another, with the total amount of energy remaining constant during the process of transformation or transfer. Car dashboard: It is a device that reflects the working conditions of various vehicle systems. Common indicators include the fuel indicator, washer fluid indicator, electronic throttle indicator, front and rear fog light indicators, and warning lights. Different cars have different instrument panels. However, conventional car dashboards typically include a speedometer, tachometer, oil pressure gauge, coolant temperature gauge, fuel gauge, and charging gauge. Beneath the surface of modern car dashboards, there are various indicator or warning lights, such as the coolant level warning light, fuel level indicator, washer fluid level indicator, charging indicator, high/low beam indicator, transmission gear indicator, anti-lock braking system (ABS) indicator, traction control indicator, and airbag (SRS) warning light, among others.
