Lighting and signaling dashboard warning lights 

These lights let you know that something is amiss with your exterior lighting. If you see one of these light up, have a buddy check that your lights are functioning while you stay in the car and switch off and on your brake lights, head lamps, and turning signals. See the pages of your owner’s manual indicated in the image below for more information. 


Instrument cluster lights for brake issues 

These dashboard warning lights may indicate an issue with your braking system. If one appears while driving, stop safely and inspect your vehicle before continuing. Some symbols may point to low brake fluid, worn brake pads, or a parking brake issue. 


Dashboard symbols for visibility issues 

If you see this warning symbol, there’s an issue with your windshield washer fluid level. Try topping off your windshield wiper fluid.  


Engine dashboard lights and check engine light 

Engine warning lights can point to a range of issues, from a loose gas cap to engine trouble. If the check engine light flashes, reduce your speed and schedule service as soon as possible. 



Fuel and refueling warning lamp 

If this symbol turns on while you’re driving, visit a gas station to refuel your vehicle as soon as possible.  


Transmission wrench dashboard light 

The wrench light on your dashboard means that you’re experiencing a transmission issue. If it flashes while driving, immediately reduce your speed. 


Vehicle handling instrument cluster lamps 

These symbols relate to systems that help your vehicle maintain traction and stability. You may see these lights appear during slippery driving conditions or when a handling system needs attention. 


Driver assistance indicator lamps 

Driver assistance warning lights relate to features such as lane keeping assistance, adaptive cruise control, or parking assistance. These symbols may indicate that a feature is active, temporarily unavailable, or experiencing a malfunction. See the pages indicated below in your owner’s manual for further guidance. 



Safety warning lamps on the dashboard 

Safety warning symbols monitor important protection systems inside your vehicle. These may include airbags, seat belts, or collision warning systems. If one stays illuminated, schedule service to inspect the affected system. 


Security warning lamps on the dashboard 

These symbols may indicate that you’ve left your hood or liftgate open, which can pose a security risk. 


Electrical system dashboard warning light 

If this electric system dashboard warning lamp turns on while driving, you have a charging system error. Switch off all unnecessary equipment, such as the radio, and visit a dealership like Sherwood Ford for further evaluation.
