FAQs
What does the red battery light on my dashboard mean?
The red battery indicator indicates a problem with the charging system of the vehicle. It could be an issue with the alternator, the battery, or a component of the charging system. You should have a qualified technician examine it immediately.
A problem with the engine or emission control system is indicated by the check engine light. Even though the vehicle can still be driven with this indicator illuminated, it is advisable to have it inspected as soon as possible to avoid potential damage or poor fuel economy.
The engine’s oil pressure is too low, as indicated by the oil pressure warning indicator. Driving with inadequate oil pressure can cause engine damage. Stop immediately and turn off the engine, then inspect the oil level and consult a mechanic.
The ABS indicator light indicates an issue with the anti-lock braking system. While the conventional brakes should continue to function, the ABS may not. Have a technician inspect the brakes to ensure their safety.
Low tire pressure is indicated by the tire pressure warning lamp. Check and inflate your tires to the recommended pressure levels. If the indicator light persists, there may be a sensor or puncture issue.
The red temperature warning indicator indicates an overheated engine. Stop immediately, turn off the engine, and let it calm down. Overheating can result in significant engine damage.
The airbag warning light indicates an airbag system malfunction. If this indicator is illuminated, your airbags may not deploy in the event of an accident. A professional inspection will ensure your safety.

The yellow check gas cap light indicates that the gas cap is either loose or inadequately secured. Ensure that it is appropriately tightened. If the light persists, it may be indicative of a larger problem; consult a mechanic.
The green or blue high beam indicator light indicates that the vehicle’s high beam headlamps are activated. It serves as a reminder to switch to low beams when traveling in traffic so as not to blind other motorists.
When both lights are illuminated, it indicates a problem with the traction control and stability control systems. In slick conditions, your vehicle’s traction may be compromised. It should be inspected by an expert.
This indicator light is for the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). It indicates that one or more of your tires are underinflated. Check and adjust tire pressure accordingly.
The yellow engine temperature light indicates that the engine is functioning at a temperature above normal. It is a warning to avoid driving aggressively and to reduce engine burden. If the problem persists, examine the cooling system.
