Get a mechanic to check your oil and fluid levels and your brakes
its most likely that one of your fluid levels is slightly low

SOURCE: DASH LIGHTS DIM WHEN BRAKE OR LEFT BLINKER APPLIED

Pull the bulb out of both left side turn signals and check the filaments. As these are double filament bulbs, sometimes the filaments break and lay across the other creating a feedback issue.

SOURCE: G35, 2004 SLP and vdc dash lights come on.

Haven't seen this very much on 2004's but on 03's There was a service bulletin issued on this. The bulletin directed the technician to perform an inspection of the Brake Control System. Most of the cars I ever saw with this issue had to have the VDC/TCS/ABS control unit/module replaced. The part number for the 03 model sedans is 47851-AM401. if your car is an 04 sedan the part number should begin with the same numbers. Usually there was an internal malfunction in the control unit that caused the computer module that controls and monitors this system to detect a Yaw Rate sensor malfunction which in turn caused the lights to come on and stay on. If your vehicle is a coupe, then the part numbers are a little bit different. I would recommend contacting any Infiniti dealer with your VIN number in hand and ask them if the VDC/TCS/ABS control unit has ever been replaced. Just so you know each and every time an Infiniti has been to the dealer and a repair order was written there is a record of that visit in Infiniti's database, and any dealer can access that information simply by putting in the vin number into their service computer. They can tell you where the car was originally purchased, service history, warranty repair history, any recalls, etc. I would highly suggest doing this, most dealers will even print you a copy of the complete history of the vehicle for a nominal charge. Hope this helps

SOURCE: What does "engine" light on dash board mean?

This indicates a problem with the engine that needs attention. If you take it to your local garage, they will put it on their computer and that will tell you what is wrong.

SOURCE: red car shaped flashing light on dash board when engine off?

I'm assuming that you are referring to a 2006 Altima since you have it pictured the only car on the dash is for open trunk.

2010 Kia Sedona. The "door open" chime, warning light on dash, and overhead light, all come on. All doors closed tight. It mainly happens when turning/veering right. When I come to a stop, the chime...

A service manual will provide a series of tests that may help troubleshooting steps. But, since this sounds intermittent then it may be a connection problem. Try a visual inspection looking for loose connections.

I have a citreon Xantia v6.On start up the light above the oil light flashes on and of for 10 seconds then stops.What is this?

It means the oil pressure may be low, have a shop hook up a test gauge and verify your oil pressure is good and within factory specs, if not the oil pump may be defective, but that is only a guess. Do not drive this until you get it checked or you risk damage to the engine's bearings from low oil pressure if it is indeed really low and the sending unit for the light isn't defective..

Citroen xantia alarm & stop light on dash

PSA cars with analog instrument clusters have the STOP light to alert drivers of irregularities in engine temperature or coolant that may cause severe damage to the engine. Check your radiator coolant level and top up when it's low. Don't forget to bleed the air from the cooling system. If problem persist, check for loose connectors to the Coolant Temperature Sensor(mounted on the cylinder head) and the Coolant Level Sensor (mounted on the side of the coolant refill tank). For the alarm, check ALL door switches including those for the front hood and the rear trunk. They may be shorted to earth or one of the door becomes ajar. Next time the alarm triggers, check which door looked like it's slightly opened. If so, realign the door hook located in the door pillar.

Citroen Xantia AUTO 2.0 alert lights cold (sport and snow lights)

The S light is also used like a 'check engine' light for auto transmission. There maybe some error in the transmission control system. You transmission has a computer that controls a lot of valves and solenoids in it. Check your transmission fluid level and it's integrity. If you have not changed the fluid for the last 50000kms then it's due for a change. Use only Peugeot recommended fluid. Other fluids will damage it. Mention your transmission type when buying. It's either AL4 or 4HP20. Best to buy it from authorized dealer. Garages that have a Lexia 3 scanner can scan for error codes for the transmission.

The oil light on my citreon berlingo van 1.4 petrol will not go off and the stop light flashes and beeps intermittently. I have put about 3 or 4 litres of oil in and there does not appear to be any leaks...

Have you checked the oil level, is it in the norm?, if its normal and still get light, then possible faulty oil pressure sensor. The brake light... are you disengaging the parking brake all the way?, have your parking brake sensor and oil pressure sensor checked out.

Good luck

Citroen Xantia Temperature warning light

I think there is air trapped in the radiator. Remove the level semsor in on the radiator and make sure you fill the water from there first, fit it back and then remove the expansion tank and hold it higher in the air and make sure youget clear running water at the air bleeders. Cheers.
