Why did the gear indicator light next to the shifter suddenly stop working?
1 Answers
The failure of the gear indicator light is caused by a malfunction in the gear selector switch. When the gear indicator light is not working, it may result in issues such as inability to shift gears, gear confusion, leading to significant driving jerks and affecting driving comfort. Once there is a problem with the vehicle's transmission, the motor vehicle should not be driven as it poses certain safety hazards, endangering both the driver and passengers. Here is some additional information: Automatic Transmission: An automatic transmission eliminates the need for the driver to manually shift gears; the vehicle automatically selects the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions. Typically, automatic transmission vehicles have six gear positions, arranged from top to bottom as: P, R, N, D, S, L. Driving an automatic transmission vehicle only requires using the Parking (P) gear, Reverse (R) gear, Neutral (N) gear, and Drive (D) gear to meet the needs of general driving.
