Chevy Equinox Dashboard Lights

If you’re driving through Manhattan, Wamego, or Junction City and see a warning light illuminate on your Chevy Equinox  you may be curious as to what you should do about it. While many of your dashboard lights are simply there to alert you to an engaged system, some of them are meant to warn you of a potential malfunction, so it’s important to understand the difference.

Take a look at this Chevy Equinox dashboard lights guide from Murdock Manhattan Chevrolet to learn more about your vehicle’s dashboard lights and what your next steps should be.

    Brake Warning Light

    The brake warning light says BRAKE and alerts you to the health of your braking system  If your brake fluid needs to be checked or there’s a problem with one of the braking components, this light will come on. Because brakes are fundamental to your vehicle’s safety, it’s important to have your vehicle serviced.

      Engine Coolant Warning Light

      The engine coolant warning light has a symbol of a thermometer in liquid. It monitors your engine coolant level, which is used to keep your engine from overheating. If this light turns on, you should pull over on the side of the road to allow your engine to cool down, and shut off everything inside your vehicle. Wait until your vehicle cools down and then make an appointment with a service center.

        Low Tire Pressure Warning Light

        The low tire pressure warning light has a symbol of an exclamation point with parentheses around it. It monitors the air pressure in all of your tires. If it turns on, it means that you have low pressure in one or more of your tires, which can leave you vulnerable to a blowout. Check the tire pressure in all of your tires, refilling as necessary. If the light stays on, make an appointment with a service center to see what the problem is. You may end up needing tire repair or replacement.

          Check Engine Light

          The check engine light has a symbol of an engine and monitors many systems within your vehicle. If it comes on, it usually means that you have an issue with your engine or emissions system, but it can also be something small, like a loose gas cap. If the light flashes, it means there’s a more serious problem that should be addressed as soon as possible.
