1 Answers
The appearance of an exclamation mark on the car dashboard indicates an abnormality or malfunction in the corresponding system. Below is a detailed introduction to the exclamation mark warning light: General faults: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside. If this symbol lights up, it indicates a malfunction 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. It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic transmission fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside. This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a malfunction in the transmission or transmission lubricant level below the normal range. The transmission oil should be replaced promptly. Brake system fault: A circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle. This represents a brake system warning, mainly indicating a malfunction in the brake system or low brake fluid level. The brake system should be inspected immediately to avoid accidents. Tire pressure abnormality: A horizontal line with parentheses below and an exclamation mark in the middle. This represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which lights up 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, indicating a malfunction in the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or check it yourself, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the problem. In addition, during daily use of the vehicle, the warning lights displayed on the dashboard are divided into two different colors: yellow and red: Yellow indicates a fault in the corresponding system, but the problem is not very serious. Reduce speed and proceed to the corresponding repair point for maintenance to eliminate potential safety hazards in time. Red indicates a very serious problem in the corresponding system. In this case, do not continue driving. Pull over immediately and seek professional help by phone to prevent unpredictable dangers to the vehicle and personal safety caused by forced driving. It should be noted that when the car is started, all lights will turn on, and the system will perform an automatic check. After the check is completed, the lights will automatically turn off. If a light does not turn on when the ignition is turned on, remains on without turning off, or lights up while driving, it indicates a malfunction in the related system. In such cases, seek professional help promptly to inspect the car and eliminate potential safety hazards.
