Newbie - Warning Light On

I literally just bought the car last weekend and a warning light came on. Since the car didn't come with the manual. I have NO idea what that light is for. It's in the bottom left cluster of warnings lights and the light on the most right in that cluster. Looks like a water tap dripping or something.

Please tell me what it is. It's weird that there's a problem with the car already. The engine was a new rebuilt reman from Mazda with 1000 miles on it and the radiator and the hoses have all be replaced with new stock ones. Please help!

hey brian, nice to see you posting on the forum... lol

The coolant level light is a beeping red circle... you'd know if it were going off cause you'd want it to shut the hell up, lol. My sensor broke and I had to drive around for a day with that, oh man it sucked, lol.

Teflon - no offense, but if you don;'t know what a check oil light is... be wary of owning the FD... you're going to have a TON of problems with it.. best to ya if you don't... good luck =P

(Haha, I'm one to talk, i remember when I posted a picture of the main fuse wire and asked where the hell it went... LOL)

You do know that by design Rotary Engines burn oil? You need to check your oil level before driving it any further

wow... now I feel bad for the kid. Probably has less than a quart running in that engine. Ouch.

Please check your oil immediately. Didn't the car come with a manual?
