Beside the car meter there are 3-4 symbol.

They will blink when we attempt to start the car.

Sometimes, when car break down, certain lights will on.


Anyone can explain what is the meaning of each light.

When does the lights will on. unsure.gif


Thank

Different car, different symbols.
I suggest you post in the forum that represents the make of your car, then maybe you will get more positive feedback.
Same time I will move you to know your car forum as this is the Auto Detailing forum....

some samples.. normally car manufacturers use similar signs. its easier when they are standardised



from left - oil pressure, SRS airbag (not pregnant lady or fat belly!!), battery, check engine/EFI



from left - driving lamp (blue colour means high beam), seat belt reminder, ABS



stability control system, traction control, anti skid

VSC = vehicle stability control

VSA = vehicle stability assist

ESP = electronic stabiliy progamme

ASC+T = Automatic Stability Control & Traction
