Dashboard warning lights by vehicle: what each light means

By Car Spec Sheet · Updated Oct 20, 2026 · Every example is checked against the owner's manual page it links to. How we work

Warning and indicator lights for 196 models: each light’s name as the owner’s manual prints it, what it means, what the manual says to do, and the page it’s on. A red light usually means stop or act now; an amber light means have it checked soon. Your own manual has the final word.
