What does the yellow circle with an exclamation mark mean on the 10th generation Accord?
1 Answers
A circle with an exclamation mark inside parentheses represents a warning for the braking system, mainly indicating a braking system malfunction or low brake fluid level. Solution: Immediate inspection and repair of the braking system are required to avoid accidents. The exclamation mark is a common fault indicator in cars. Apart from the exclamation mark inside a circled parenthesis, there are four other forms of exclamation marks: an exclamation mark inside a triangle, an exclamation mark inside a yellow gear, an exclamation mark with a horizontal line below the parentheses, and a yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. Below is a detailed analysis of these four scenarios: General Fault: An exclamation mark inside a triangle. If this symbol lights up, it indicates a fault in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Common issues include parking sensor failure, fuel cut-off system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, engine oil pressure sensor failure, etc. A visit to a 4S shop is necessary to diagnose and address the fault. Automatic Transmission Fault: An exclamation mark inside a yellow gear. This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a transmission malfunction or transmission fluid level below the normal range. Transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Tire Pressure Anomaly: An exclamation mark with a horizontal line below the parentheses. This represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which illuminates when the car's tire pressure is too low. Check the tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. This is the lighting fault indicator, signaling a malfunction in one of the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop as soon as possible for inspection and repair, or conduct a self-check focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue.
