The yellow triangle symbol with an exclamation mark in the middle is the traction control indicator. When this light is on, it reminds the driver to turn off the traction control system. If the light remains on, it indicates an issue with the traction system. A yellow exclamation mark inside parentheses is the tire pressure monitoring indicator, signaling abnormal tire pressure. Automatic transmission fault warning light: If there is a yellow gear with an exclamation mark in the middle, this is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a problem with the transmission or that the transmission fluid is below the normal range or needs replacement. When the clutch overheats, this warning light will automatically illuminate, and the dashboard will display relevant information. In such cases, gear shifting must be limited, and the usage environment should be adjusted to cool down until normal conditions are restored. Wiper system fault: If there is an exclamation mark inside a fan-shaped pattern, this indicates a wiper system fault, and the wipers should be checked for issues. A bulb with an exclamation mark in the middle is the exterior light indicator. When this fault light comes on, it means there is a problem with an exterior bulb, requiring inspection or replacement.

Can the Engine Start if the Timing Belt Breaks?

The engine cannot start if the timing belt breaks. Below is more information about the timing belt: 1. Replace according to specified mileage: The timing belt is a consumable part. Once it breaks, the camshaft will not operate in sync with the timing, which can cause severe damage due to the collision between the valves and pistons. Therefore, the timing belt must be replaced according to the mileage or time specified by the manufacturer. 2. Function of the timing belt: During the operation of a car engine, the four processes of intake, compression, combustion, and exhaust continuously occur in the cylinders. Each step must be synchronized with the movement and position of the pistons to coordinate the intake, exhaust, and piston movements. The timing belt, driven by the crankshaft, transmits power to the corresponding components.
