What does the 'stop' warning mean in a diesel vehicle?
1 Answers
Diesel vehicle displaying 'stop' is a mandatory parking alarm light. The main causes for this warning light include low engine oil pressure, insufficient brake fluid level, or excessive coolant temperature. In this condition, the engine must be shut down immediately. When a component in the vehicle malfunctions, the stop light on the dashboard will illuminate. If accompanied by other indicator lights, it indicates a specific component failure requiring prompt repair. Common dashboard warning lights include: tire pressure warning light, coolant temperature warning light, windshield washer fluid indicator, engine malfunction light, battery warning light, brake system warning light, door ajar warning light, seatbelt reminder light, ABS warning light, engine oil pressure warning light, and airbag system warning light.
