Astra ignition lights?
Astra ignition lights? Don't want to be sarcastic,but what do you actually want to know here? On most modern cars,Astra included,when you turn the key,all the warning lights come on as a "self test",then go out as the ECU checks the items they pertain to.The ones which stay on are ignition/charge lamp and oil pressure.Once the engine starts,these too should go out,unless you have a problem.
