This is a traction control indicator. If it comes on when applying the brakes, the ABS system has been activated. If it comes on during sharp turns, the traction control has been enabled. If it is on all the time, there is an error with either sensor, or system. Have your car hooked up to scanner and read any codes present. Report back if there are further questions. Thank you for using FixYa - your FiXya rating is appreciated.

What does this trangle/Exclamation point warning light mean on my VW Atlas?

I got dash warning lights coming on. please advise

There are many warning lights that can come on , some very serious , and you should shut down the engine and not drive further till the fault is repaired , oil pressure, overheating , brake fail , the above warning lights are classed as serious, most other warnings are minor but should be repaired as soon as possible . The drivers hand book will show the symbol for each fault.

I have a P reg Suzuki Swift Auto. On the dash board I keep getting the (!) sign. Sometimes it goes but reappears. What does it mean?

hey thanks for the oblique clues. reg + !
we dont have ! warnings on ours.
but is (was) in the operators guide> lost that?

reg code P (iso ) is
P 23px-flag_of_portugal.svg.png Portugal warning on many cars are designed for target country.
so?
with special operators guide for you.
ours is here.
and endless list . it seems

on or cars if at all, its master warning
means to look at all other lights and gauges for wrong readings.
but>?????

quote:
This is the Master Warning Light symbol. If this light is on, there will likely be text displayed as well on the instrument panel. Look for the text. It could very well point out something as serious as low oil pressure. However, despite the serious look to the symbol, it is generally associated with simple reminders such as a door ajar or that it is time to change the oil. master_warning_light_2.gifThis same symbol, an exclamation point in a triangle, in yellow or amber has been used by European vehicle manufacturers to indicate a fault in the vehicle's Stability Control System. The vehicle can be driven with caution, but without the benefit of the advanced electronic control system. See your dealer as soon as possible.

buy the lost operators guide and not need to google seach every time a light flashes. nor get stranded. with no 3g.

I have a yellow warning symbol pop up on my 2001 audi a6 dashboard display. It looks like a little man (robot). Do not know what it means. Any help?

Hello! If you have an owners manual the symbols are described in it...If not, visit a dealer...They have a card with all symbols defined...I would need a better description to identify the one you are asking about..Is there a circle or an X involved?

Volvo S80 1999 Dashboard Light Problem

Is it in the center of the dash or in the right corner? The one on the right is for the ABS. The one in the center is a general message. Using the read function on the signal stalk there will be an explanation of the light.
