What is that light ?

Anyone knows what is the left-most light on the dashboard (in the same row of lights as the Check Engine Light, but its the left-most one) ?

I get that occasionally. What is it ?

Rear defroster is right next to it on its right side.

Left most is the one I'm interested in, then its rear defroster, then its check engine I think.

It has this circle in it and some zigzag in it or something. I think my Turbo Control Solenoid is not working properly (I sometimes dont get 2nd turbo boost when in 1st or 2nd gear and have low transition) and maybe that light is signalling this problem.

How does check engine light look like when it is lit ? I think it says "Check ECU" or something, no ?

Is this it?



That is the ABS light (anti-lock brake system). Having it come on while driving means the wheels are either spinning at different rates, or a sensor is going out.

edit: and oh, you were right, this IS the left-most light.

Yea... that's IT !
Althought mine doesn't say ABS on it.

It usually comes on when I start the car and then sometimes goes away when I drive for some time. Sometimes its just lit all the time.

Thanks a bunch !
