Warning Light on the Dash - What Does it Mean?

Today's cars and trucks have many lights that can come on the dash to warn the driver of a problem in a particular system. Many times when multiple lights are on, these can be related to the same problem.


  • Dash warning light symbols descriptions
  • Computers "TALK" to each other. So, a problem in one system can affect one or more other systems. Sometimes this will cause a system to be disabled and the warning light to come on, even though that system does not have a problem.

    A good example of this is that a problem in the ABS will usually cause the Traction Control to be disabled. You may have an indicator that shows "TRAC Off". That does not neccesarily mean there is a fault in the Traction control function.
