When a Warning Light Comes On

Modern vehicles use warning lights to tell you when something needs attention.


You might see a:


  • Check engine light
  • ABS warning
  • Airbag warning
  • Battery or charging light
  • Oil warning
  • Transmission warning
  • Traction or stability control light
  • Other dashboard warning
  • Sometimes the light stays on. Sometimes it disappears and comes back later.


Even if your car still seems to drive normally, it’s worth finding out why the warning light appeared.
