Seeing these warning lights on your car, you need to pay close attention.

On a car, the manufacturer designs dozens of control systems that integrate warning lights when there is an abnormal problem. Although it is not necessary to try to remember all of them, there are the following warning lights that absolutely should not be ignored.

Lubricating oil pressure warning light

This light usually appears immediately after starting the engine and disappears after 1 to 2 seconds. However, if the light is constantly on, it means that the vehicle is operating in a state of lack or no lubricating oil.

This condition can cause the engine to seize, the engine parts are not lubricated/cooled and will damage the engine.

It is best to stop the car, check the oil and take the car to a service center for repair.

Brake system warning light

When this light is on, it warns that there is a problem with the brake system, the brake pads are worn too much, or there is a lack of brake fluid. When you step on the brake pedal, it will feel softer than usual, the brake is harder to apply, the feeling of soft brake pedal can also be due to a broken brake cup, reducing or losing brake fluid pressure.

Tire pressure warning light

The light will come on when the tire pressure in the vehicle is not guaranteed, usually the light appears when the tire pressure is 25% lower than standard.

If the tire is under-inflated, it will cause uneven braking and traction, increasing the risk of tire explosion, making it unsafe for people in the car. The cause may be a puncture or air leakage. Check and inflate according to the recommendations on the tire sidewall.

Temperature warning light

When the “TEMP” light is on, it means the engine temperature is higher than the standard (engine overheating). The parts are over-expanded, causing them to seize or break.

The cause of this condition could be due to lack of coolant or a malfunctioning coolant system, the thermostat or ventilation fan could be running continuously, consuming more fuel.

Check the water level in the auxiliary tank, never open the radiator cap or the auxiliary tank when it is still hot because hot water will cause burns. Using the right type of coolant will help the engine operate more durably and stably.

Airbag system indicator light

The airbag system operates in the event of a serious collision, ensuring the safety of the occupants of the vehicle. However, when the airbag system warning light is on, it means that the system is not working, and the airbag may not deploy when necessary. It is necessary to check and handle promptly to ensure the safety of the occupants of the vehicle before driving.
