Warning Light

Featured Replies

Hi all, can anyone please tell me what the below warning light is that is highlighted in the red box? Came on this morning on my way to work, car is driving fine with now issues when in motion. When I parked up and turned off the ignition for around 2 mins, then restarted the light cleared. Not sure if this will re-appear when I start driving again.

Appreciate your thoughts please lads & lasses.

It's a "Bulb Out" Warning Light, check to see which one is out. Do you have by chance any LED's installed in the car? They could as well be a problem.

+1 Bulb out light. check 'em all :)

Cheers pal.

Don't forget to check the brake lights too as I found this is also a warning if they go!

Good call bud as this is exactly what has gone.

Cheers all for the input.

Does this light pop up when you put led reg plate bulbs in by any chance?

Not on all Cars, only on most CANBUS ones. It does throw an error on most Cars with CANBUS System if connected without a CANBUS Resistor. To be safe, put in CANBUS-ready ones. But even this does not always guarantee error free fitment.

Aye was a light that baffled me too ????.

I've had this pop up for headlights, brake lights & rear lights but note it didn't come on when a sidelight failed.

The manual states:

The warning light ? comes on if a light bulb is damaged:

• brakes applied (brake light),

• in lighting (low beam and/or rear light).

A peep sounds as an additional warning signal.

Hence it doesn't come on for others...

It doesn't remember the fault either, so it can look like it's fixed until it recurs - e.g. the brake light fault is only registered when the brakes are applied. When the ignition is switched off and on, it'll clear until you use the brake again.

Indeed, should make it easy to spot which is blown though.
