What is the meaning of K symbol in the dashboard?
What does the red flashing s symbol on the dashboard of your vauxhall astra automatic 1996 mean?
I think it's telling you there is a possible problem with the auto-box.Corsa's are like this,so I'm guessing Astra is the same. The "S" should light up when you press the sport button on the gear selector,this causes the intermediate gears to hold on longer for accelleration or hillclimbing with a c…aravan on the back.You could try cycling the "S" button to see if it helps,though I think it cancels anyway with ign off. The "S" symbol flashes to alert you to a problem,it may require no more than a computer reset.The gearbox is checked for faults with a diagnostic kit,same as the engine.Hopefully,a short visit to a dealer will solve it for you. We had the same problem with a 1995 Asta - I plugged the scanner in and cleared all the codes and the light no longer flashes, so your answer seems perfectly correct! ( Full Answer )

What does the warning light exclamation symbol mean on the dashboard of your 2005 Solara?
The exclamation point means that your tires have a low air pressure. You may want to check it out and see which tire may need some air. Check your owner's manual for dashboard symbols. Some of them are more important than others. The exclamation point between parenthesis (!) is supposed to represe…nt a tire icon. As the original answer indicated, it means one (or more) of your tires is low on pressure. Consult the owners manual or driver's side door sticker for proper pressures then reset the pressure sensing system. To reset, hold down the button (lower left side of dash) until the (!) light flashes several times. You then have to drive several miles before the sensor calibrates itself again. If the light comes back on in a very short time, you didn't hold the button long enough. Wait for the light to stop flashing. If the light comes on again in a day or a few days, you have a slow leak in one tire. Have it repaired. Cheers ( Full Answer )
What does the engine symbol on the dashboard of a 94 Chevrolet beretta mean?
If you don't have a manual, GET ONE! This is the check engine light (that's why it's shaped like an engine...) It could be anything from low gas pressure to a vacuum leak to burnt valves, anything that causes irregularities in the engine's operation will trigger this light. There are a dozen sensors… for different things (air, gas, spark, and all the things necessary to keep them balanced), and when one of them detects that something's out of whack, it lights this up. Your mechanic can get the code for what's wrong off the car's computer, or you can buy an OBDII (On Board Diagnostic) tool yourself and read the codes. Caution; some conditions will WRECK YOUR ENGINE if you drive with them unrepaired for too long! ( Full Answer )
