What does the small sun warning light on the car indicate?

The yellow small sun light on the dashboard is a lighting warning light, indicating a bulb failure light, which means that a bulb somewhere in the vehicle is damaged, reminding the owner to check all the vehicle's lights. Extended information about the yellow light on the dashboard: 1. Poor wiring: It may be caused by loose connections or poor wiring, or the bulb filament being on the verge of breaking. 2. Common lights: Common lights include turn signals, brake lights, license plate lights, width marker lights, front and rear fog lights, reverse lights, high beams, and low beams. The dashboard is a rigid panel or structural component used to install instruments and related devices. It can be categorized by type into screen-type dashboards, frame-type dashboards, passage-type dashboards, and cabinet-type dashboards, and also includes some indicator and warning lights.
I think this little sun warning light is quite crucial—it's the warning sign for an overheating engine. I encountered it once while driving, when I forgot to check the coolant, and the engine almost boiled over. Generally, if the light comes on, it could be due to insufficient coolant, a non-functioning fan, or a clogged radiator, among other reasons. If this happens, stop the car and turn off the engine immediately, or the engine might get damaged, leading to expensive repairs. You can open the hood (but be careful of steam) to check the coolant level; if it's low, add some water or coolant as an emergency measure, but it's best to get it checked for leaks. Checking these basics before long trips can help avoid a lot of trouble.
