Lincoln Vehicle Service Warning Indicators
Learning these 10 common dashboard lights will improve your driving proficiency. Your Lincoln warning lights help identify maintenance, safety, and repair issues.
Airbag Fault
If this light appears, your vehicle's control module has noticed an airbag system problem. Prompt repairs are needed to avoid a malfunction during a crash.
Low Fuel Level Warning Light
This indicator informs you that your gas tank is running low. The point at which this light comes on varies by vehicle. We advise you to stop for gas very soon.
Oil Pressure Warning Light
Do not run your car when this indicator glows on your dashboard. It warns of low oil pressure, which can destroy your engine. Add oil to your system if you find an inadequate level. If the light remains on when you have adequate oil, professional repairs are needed.
Service Vehicle Soon
While your SVS light can indicate that your car needs an oil change, it may also communicate the need for minor service. Check your owner's manual for a list of the reasons your car might activate this light.
TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System)
Low tire pressure activates this light. This condition affects your safety. Find an air pump, and adjust your tires to the pressure level on the decal inside your driver's door. If the light stays illuminated after a few minutes back on the road, your sensors need service.
Slip Indicator
All cars with stability control and traction control have this indicator. It flashes when either of those features responds to slippage. If the light appears under normal driving conditions, you need this system's components serviced.
Charging System Warning Light
This light indicates a fault in the system that supports your battery. The problem could be your alternator, flow regulator, battery, or another component. If you are unsure about how to repair this issue, bring your car to our Lincoln professionals.
Brake System
Brake lines sometimes get air in them. They can also develop leaks over time. You'll potentially lose brake pressure if you ignore this light. We can diagnose and fix your brake system's problem.
Open Door Warning Light
This light indicates an open door. Your trunk may also be open. Secure all doors before driving. You may need to check for articles between the door and doorjamb.
Coolant Level Warning
This is a serious warning that your engine coolant is low. Never run your engine on low coolant. Even if you add coolant and drive for a bit before this light returns, you may have a leak in your coolant system. Properly fix this problem to avoid extreme engine damage.
