Dashboard lights can be confusing but here's what each one of them means:
Cruise Control Active:
This green light indicates the cruise control is engaged, maintaining speed without pressing the accelerator pedal. It's deactivated using the steering wheel lever.
ABS Anti-lock Brake Failure:
If you see this yellow light with the letters "ABS," a sensor may be damaged or the module may not be functioning properly. It affects braking on slippery surfaces.
Check Engine:
When this light comes on, there's an engine fault that could range from a dirty sensor to a more serious problem. It's key to scan the system as soon as possible. It could also indicate a problem with the car's emissions or catalytic converter.
Traction Control:
This light indicates the system is working. But if you see "OFF," it means it's been deactivated, which can compromise the car's stability on curves or in the rain.
👉 At some point, you'll need to know what each light means.
