Whenever this warning light or any other stays on in the dash it is indicating that the systems control module (or the system sensor in the case of lights like low oil pressure, door open indicators etc.) has detected a fault, it then disables the system (this applies to ABS,TCS, TCM, SRS and BCM faults and others) as long as the light is on. You must now have the dealer hook up a special electronic diagnostic tool and "scan" the system for the fault code that is stored for the problem(s)

SOURCE: Resetting Oil Service indicator lights on 1995 e300d mercedes

Hi Mike,
I'm in the U.K. and your Quarts are of a different measure to ours, I would say that is about the right amount, however careful topping up on level ground and monitoring the dip stick should get you there? anyhow where you bought the oil will have capacity details.
As for oil service light have you tried holding down the trip reset button whilst turning on ignition? Keep it pressed for about 10/15 seconds.
Good Luck!
Press the Blue button please if helped by my FREE Effort, Thank You!

SOURCE: I have 1995 C220 Mercedes. The car will run fine

Whenever the car behaves as if it has a loss of fuel, it may be just that, but when the engine management light comes on it usually isn't. If you can start the car OK, with the Air mass meter connected or disconnected, then, although the air mass meter may be faulty it isn't knackered. A blocked catalytic converter can do what you're finding and the exhaust back pressure it produces can confuse the engine management system. There's no easy way I know to be sure about this apart from running the car cat-free. Where you could do this nowadays is anyone's guess.

What does the triangle with exclamation point on the dash of a 2009 ML 350 Mercedes indicate? How do you clear it?

ESP Traction issue. Same as when wheel slips in Gravel.
Can be reset by turning steering lock to lock with motor running about 3 times.
If persists try engaging and disengaging low range.

I have a 1995 mercedes 220 oil in the cooling system gunky white. car runs excellent except for that.

Head gasket has failed replaced before something gets worse. Oil in coolant is not good for cooling and at some point water can get into oil and that will cause engine failure.

Light that looks like exclamation point in a circle located below tachometer flashing.

First off you need an owner's manual. You can get a free one here. http://pdfservicemanual.com/automotive/2001-ford-taurus-owners-manual The light that looks like a gear with an exclamation point inside indicates there is a problem with the transmission. May just be low of transmission fluid. To check the level dive the car until the transmission is warm, park on a level surface, place gear shift in park with engine running, and check transmission fluid level. Add only if necessary and do not overfill. If it is not low of fluid then seek professional help. The exclamation point in a circle under the fuel gauge next to the Brake light indicates you are low of brake fluid. Check the level of the brake fluid. If it is low you more than likely need to check your brake pads as they are worn out.

Exclamation point warning light came on...what

A yellow explanation point symbol on the dashboard typically applies to the Tire Pressure Monitoring system. A thick ! inside a half drawn flat tire symbol to be complete and comes in yellow color when lit. Under normal vehicle set-up, if this indicator stays lit after the power-on selftest, you need to check your tires for any uneven pressures and adjust their pressures to correct specifications. Okay? : )

A red exclamation point inside a circle when lit indicates your parking brake is on, or your brake fluid level is low.

Blinking Orange Exclamation Point on 04 4runner

Since your question is listed as a 1999 Saturn SL and a Toyota 4Runner, I will answer both:

1999 Saturn SL
Typically the orange exclamation point dash warning light is indicating a problem with your brakes, parking or hand brake. Check to ensure that your emergency brake is completely disengaged.
Check to ensure proper brake fluid level.
Otherwise this could be indicating a problem with the ABS system.

04 Toyota 4Runner
Low tire air pressure. Inflate to approximately 32 PSI should correct your problem.

I hope this helps.

Wat does the exclamation point in the dashboard mean?

the exclamation point inside a triangle is the VSA activation indicator or Vehicle Stability Assist system indicator. If the indicator stays on, have the VSA checked at the dealer.
