The left and right arrows are the turn signal indicators. Usually green in color, the left signal will flash when the left turn indicator is selected and the right will flash when the right indicator is selected. A lot of vehicles will flash both together when the hazard lights are switched on.

Refers to parking sensors. A lot of modern vehicles are equipped with parking sensors that help aid in parking in tight spaces. This light will illuminate when the system has been manually turned off or if there is an issue with the sensors.

This pair of sideways pointed lights refers to a vehicle’s exterior indicator lights, often referred to as parking lights. When the vehicles full lighting system is on, this light will illuminate.

The most common warning, the check engine light (CEL) is a catch-all light that may refer to an engine issue, loose gasoline cap or faulty sensor. If illuminated in yellow or amber, take your car to a mechanic at your earliest convenience. It glowing red, take your car in immediately.

90% of cars on Nigerian roads, Lagos particularly have this light on, constantly....

Awesome

Alot of guys have learnt from you

Thumps up to you

Some people Wey no get motor too dey follow us wey get dey comment































No respect again

This is a fairly self explanatory light. A lot of new vehicles have an oil life monitor built on-board that tracks when exactly it’s time to change the oil. When illuminated, it’s time to head to the mechanic for some new oil.

my car service engine soon refuses to stop since last year o and I service it regularly.

what could have cause it pls?

thanks

Unlike the light above, this light doesn’t refer to an impending oil change. It indicates that the engine oil level is low and requires a top-up immediately. If flashing, the oil level may be empty or at critical levels.

I complained of this in my last thread and I was told this warning light indicates low oil pressure.

I put more oil when I first discover the warning light and even overguage but it did not stop untill when I drain the whole oil.

I just wanna know if its low oil pressure or oil shortage .thanks

Bro you need to have your car scanned. There are various reasons why the check engine light may be on so just changing your oil, oil filter and plugs isn't enough.

A technician will use a code reader – plugging it into your car’s data port – that will display a numerical code that can be referenced to diagnose your car’s problem. Most times the cross-referenced descriptions are less than helpful to a DIYer. You may get “fuel supply system” as the cause of your troubles. Unfortunately, the fuel supply system on most vehicles is made up of a slew of parts, and choosing to replace each and every one until you hit the trouble spot would be costly. Luckily, an experienced technician can decipher your car’s woes.

On the contrary, the light indicates low oil pressure and not low oil level. On some models (eg Honda's) the check engine light will come on if the oil level goes critically low.

If this light stays on, engine is most likely worn.

It depends on the car brand. They tell you whether it's an entry level vehicle (i.e the most basic vehicle in the line up which will have radio, clothe seats, ac, etc but no extra technology or luxury amenities) or the sport edition (has a sporty look) or the premium version of the brand.

Each car manufacturer has various signs for that.

se is usually sport edition

For the Toyota Camry, le is the basic edition, se is the sport edition, xse is the premium sport edition and XLE is the premium edition of the Camry. This results in some serious price disparity.

I hope that I have been able to explain.
