What car? low fuel level???
Check the gauges. One or more of the gauges must be out of normal range to trip the "check gauges" light.
In my 99 cavalier it means to look at gauges and check to make sure they are reading correctly. Mine goes on when I need fuel. Dummy light is what they are called.
It depends on what is causing it. This light usually comes on when the car dies, the oil pressure goes to zero, the water temp goes into the red zone, or the volt gauge goes to high or low. One of your gauges should be inoperative or showing an incorrect reading, or you have a problem with the engine for this light to be coming on.
The check gauges light means that one of the gauges is out of the safe range.
Check your owners manual. It tells you what each of your fuses goes to depending on the vehicle.
'check gauges' means one of your dash warning gauges went beyond normal paramaters, alerting a problem... my guess is- it's your oil pressure gauge....CHECK YOUR OIL level... if the level is low, when the truck leans (as when you exit an off ramp) the oil pressure will drop.
Answer location of check gauges lightthe check gauges light is on your instrument panel when it comes on it lights up saying check gauges
When the check gauges light comes on it is telling you to check the gauges because at least one of the gauges is out of normal range. It could be low oil pressure, engine over heating or low voltage.
There is a fuse for the gauges, check it.
The check gauges light stays on when one of the gauges is out of the safe or normal range.
My older Blazer has a 'check engine' light and also a 'check gauges' light. When the 'check gauges' light is on, check your other gauges like the temp and volt gauges. One of them may be showing something different than normal.
The dash light brightness control may be turned off, check the switch.
