Lights up when hard braking

Post by JOeJOe »

Hey guys, there's a light on the top right corner that lights up when I hard brake, just wondering what it is. Been searching for a diagram for the dash but no luck.

I think it may be the brake fluid is low (wasn't able to check coz it was dark and raining last night), any idea's?

Washer fluid is the very top right one.

Yay for search function!

Waaait. My top right symbol has also been flashing around hard (but only right) corners... but the symbol isn't the same? It looks more like a tank with a small raised bit on the right hand side, and a black bar at the bottom. I'm assuming the function is the same?

Fill your washer fluid.

Hahah, don't worry mate, I went on a few cruises with no water in my wiper bottle and every time I hit a corner it'd start flashing

My brother in law was convinced a few time that it has something to do with my transmission... even though I told him it was the wiper bottle

Hey, I'm pretty sure I've run out of fluid before and that light's never come on! :lol:

Also, make it smaller and get Ben to make it a smiley, haha.
