1 Answers
After the motor vehicle is turned off, parked, and locked, a small red light on the dashboard or the center console will illuminate, which is the anti-theft indicator light. Its illumination indicates that the vehicle has entered the locked state. If one day the anti-theft indicator light stops flashing, it means there is a fault in the car's anti-theft system. In addition, there are various types of lights on the car dashboard, including the engine fault light, oil fault light, tire pressure fault light, transmission fault light, and maintenance reminder light. When a yellow light comes on, it generally indicates a fault in the vehicle. At this time, the vehicle should be inspected and repaired based on the type of fault light. When the following issues occur in the car, it is advisable to promptly visit a repair shop for professional inspection and maintenance to eliminate potential safety hazards during driving. Reasons for the engine fault light to illuminate: including engine overheating, engine misfire, engine knocking, severe engine carbon buildup, poor fuel quality, etc. Oil fault light: insufficient oil level, engine overheating, or damage/wear to oil pump components. Transmission fault light: transmission oil is too dirty or the transmission is overheating. Tire pressure fault light: tire pressure is too high or too low, tire damage, or tire pressure sensor fault. Maintenance reminder light: the car requires maintenance and repair.
