What does orange light on rev counter mean?
The orange light is used for a 'shift' signal. It means 'shift into the next gear now'. If your tachometer/rev counter has an adjustable setting for this light, you can set it to come on when you're at peak horsepower or torque and want to shift into the next gear. This comes in handy for getting the best performance out of your vehicle's engine while drag racing. It can also be set up to remind you to shift at a lower rev than normal to help you save fuel.
Why won't a car's engine rev over 2800 RPM?
In assumption that this question is referring to an automatic transmission a car's engine will not rev over 2800 rpm because when the car automatically shifts as the speed increases that is the usual rpm that the car shifts at. If the car's rpm is getting over 3000 rpm and still not shifting then your transmission is going out and needs to be checked. The autmoatic transmission is what shifts the gears for you. In a manual (shift, clutch) the person needs to shift around 2500 to 3000 rpm. The only reason someone would let the engine rev higher than that for a long period of time while driving manually would be on purpose to burn carbon build up on the pistons.
