What does the yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in Volkswagen cars mean?
1 Answers
A triangle with an exclamation mark indicates a malfunction in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Common issues include parking sensor failure, fuel cutoff system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor failure. Solution: It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. The exclamation mark is a common fault indicator in cars. Besides the triangle with an exclamation mark, there are four other forms of exclamation marks: a yellow gear with an exclamation mark, a red circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle, a yellow bracket with a horizontal line and an exclamation mark in the middle, and a yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. Below is a detailed analysis of these four situations: Automatic transmission fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a fault in the transmission or transmission lubricant 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 represents a brake system warning, mainly indicating a brake system malfunction or low brake fluid level. The brake system should be inspected immediately to avoid accidents. Tire pressure abnormality: A bracket with a horizontal line and an exclamation mark in the middle represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light. This light turns on when the 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 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 by yourself, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the problem.
