Dashboard lights that stay on typically indicate a warning or alert related to your vehicle's systems. Common examples include the check engine light, battery warning light, and oil pressure light, signaling issues that may require immediate attention. It's essential to consult your vehicle's owner's manual for specific meanings and take appropriate action, such as checking fluid levels or seeking professional help. Ignoring these lights can lead to more significant problems down the line.
