What is the purpose of the fault indicator lights on the Foton Aumark dashboard?
2 Answers
When the engine coolant temperature warning light appears on the dashboard, it indicates that the engine coolant temperature is too high and there is a malfunction. If the brake warning light illuminates, it may indicate that the brake pads have worn to their limit, there is insufficient brake fluid, or there is a circuit short. When the ABS warning light comes on, you should also be cautious about the vehicle's braking system and check for any issues.
I've been driving a Foton Aumark for over a decade, and these dashboard warning lights are like the ECG of a truck! When the engine malfunction light comes on as a little yellow engine icon, it's probably the exhaust system acting up; when that red teapot-shaped oil pressure light pops up, you gotta pull over immediately to check the oil level. The scariest is when the brake light with an exclamation mark appears – that means the braking system might fail. Then there's the traction control light, ABS light, and air filter warning light, each speaking through colors – yellow reminds you to visit the repair shop when convenient, while red is literally shouting at you to stop and shut off the engine. Last time I ignored the coolant light during a long haul, the engine almost overheated – thankfully adding coolant in time saved me from major repairs. Veteran driver's advice: study your manual's icons, and never ignore warning lights.
