What does the 'stop' display in a car mean?
1 Answers
When a car displays 'stop', it refers to a mandatory parking alarm. In such cases, the engine should be stopped promptly. The 'stop' light is not a standalone indicator; it illuminates when any component on the dashboard malfunctions. The primary reasons for the 'stop' warning light to activate are: 1. Low oil pressure; 2. Low brake fluid level; 3. Overheating engine coolant. Modern car dashboards are equipped with various indicator or warning lights beneath the panel, such as coolant level warning light, fuel level indicator, washer fluid level indicator, charging indicator, high/low beam indicator, transmission gear indicator, ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) indicator, traction control indicator, airbag warning light, etc.
