It’s important to know what car dashboard warning lights mean because you might be able to avoid a car breakdown or full-on failure.
So here's what the different yellow and red warning lights on your dashboard mean, why they come on, how urgent the problem is and what you should do when you see them. The car warning lights on your dashboard follow a traffic light colour system:
Green: the system is working correctly or is currently in use
Yellow: something is not working correctly - take extra care and check it out as soon as possible
Red: there is a serious, and potentially dangerous problem - stop driving as soon as it is safe to do so.

I never know what those light mean. This article is very interesting
If I had given attention to this sooner would have saved a lot of money
This doesn't seem to be important until your car breaks on the road. Unfortunately, I had to learn from experience.
