LEXUS Vehicle Service Warning Indicators
Understanding your LEXUS warning lights will raise your on-road confidence. Start with these 10 lights, and refer to your owner's manual to find descriptions of any others specific to your model.
Airbag Fault
This light indicates a fault within your car's airbag system. Service is required. Delaying repair could endanger your safety as airbags may not deploy when necessary.
Low Fuel Level Warning Light
Plan to fill up your tank anytime you see this light. It notifies you that you're almost out of gas.
Oil Pressure Warning Light
You cannot drive with low oil pressure. It will severely damage your engine. Check your oil level and add oil if the level is insufficient. If adding oil does not solve the problem, your car needs professional service.
Service Vehicle Soon
Cars use this light for multiple purposes. Your SVS light may indicate the need for periodic services like an oil change or an air-filter replacement. Many cars also activate this indicator when they need minor repairs.
TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System)
This light indicates low tire pressure. Safely find an air pump. Add air to any tires with pressure lower than the amount recommended on your driver's doorjamb. Your TPMS components require service if the light does not turn off when you resume your drive.
Slip Indicator
This light connects to your stability and traction components. When your tires slip or find insufficient traction, these components engage to keep you moving forward. Simultaneously, your slip indicator will flash. If the light remains lit, get your stability and traction systems professionally checked.
Charging System Warning Light
You'll often find a battery's image on this light. It monitors the system that maintains the battery's charge. Commonly, the problem is a worn-out alternator or a dead battery. For a reliable diagnosis, visit our expert service team at Superstition Springs Lexus.
Brake System
Your brake lines can get air in them, or they can leak fluid if they become damaged. Fortunately, this indicator monitors your brake lines for those serious issues. We can professionally inspect your brake system for repairs.
Open Door Warning Light
This light lets you know that you have an open door. Some models connect the trunk or rear hatch to this light, too. Before your drive, be sure to secure all doors properly.
Coolant Level Warning
Always take this light seriously. It warns you of low engine coolant. To run in the proper temperature range, your engine requires sufficient coolant. Driving without fixing this problem is a recipe for a high engine-repair bill.
