Generally, you can easily recognize and understand any changes in the situation or state when it comes to a car. If something unusual arises, especially those related to the condition of the vehicle, it will be seen through the notification on the indicator light. Each manufacturer has provided various parameters that are directly related to the sensors of each device in the car.<\/p>\n

However, you should know that not all notifications that appear on the indicator lights indicate something bad to the car. Regardless, you still have to be vigilant. This notification is located differently from one manufacturer to another, which is generally located on the speedometer dashboard behind the wheel so that the driver can see it easily.<\/p>\n

The following is an explanation of the meaning of the indicator light notification symbol commonly found in all types of cars.<\/a> Note that you can also find this symbol in the car\u2019s manual.<\/p>\n

Understanding Indicator Lights<\/h2>\n
$\"Pengertian$ <\/p>\n
The main function of the indicator light is as a signal that indicates a problem with some parts of the car. If there is a light on, you are strongly advised to get your car checked at a nearby repair shop.<\/p>\n
A series of sensors are installed on the electronic system of a car. This sensor is called an indicator light and will notify you of anything unusual about the car.<\/p>\n
There are two types of indicator light colors you should be aware of:<\/p>\n

Red, indicates a serious problem and must be anticipated quickly, such as a problem with the braking system, low oil pressure, or overheating<\/a>.<\/li>\n

Radiator Temperature<\/h3>\n
$\"Lampu$ <\/p>\n
In the latest cars, there are two types of indicator lights to warn you about the temperature of the radiator. A blue light indicates that the engine temperature is not hot enough for driving and, in contrast, a red light indicates that the temperature on the radiator is too high.<\/p>\n
Oil Pressure<\/h3>\n
$\"Lampu$ <\/p>\n
This indicator light indicates that the car engine oil<\/a> pressure has decreased. If you find these lights turn on, you should stop the car in a safe place and let your car cool down. Add oil to restore oil pressure so that it can be used again. However, if it has been added and is still turning on, you should immediately take the car to the repair shop because it indicates an indication of a problem in another section.<\/p>\n

The symbols on this indicator light usually differ depending on the manufacturer. But in general, the symbol is a plier and a car key or a plier with a machine.

Battery<\/h3>\n
$\"Lampu$ <\/p>\n
This indicator light is related to the electricity needs in the car. In general, this battery indicator light will turn on when the machine turns on and will turn off when the car is running. However, if you find that the battery light stays on when the car is running, know that it is a sign of a problem with the battery car<\/a>, it could be that the battery's electric power has decreased or the alternator's ability to generate electricity has decreased.<\/p>\n
When the light is on, you can check the water level of the battery. If the level decreases, you can add it and recharge the battery if needed. However, if the light is still on, it is a sign that there is a problem with the alternator and must be immediately taken to the repair shop.<\/p>\n

If you experience this problem, you should not move the car until your car keys are found and this indicator light turns off.<\/p>\n
Tire Pressure<\/h3>\n
$\"Lampu$ <\/p>\n
Cars that are equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System<\/a> (TPMS) will provide a signal when your tire pressure decreases.
