Dashboard warning lights — do you know what they mean? 🚗⚠️

Your dashboard is designed to warn you when something isn’t right — but not all warning lights mean the same thing. Some are simple reminders, while others need urgent attention.

Here’s a quick guide to the severity of warning lights:

🟢 Green lights – Information only.
🟡 Amber/orange lights – A fault has been detected and should be checked soon.
🔴 Red lights – Stop safely as soon as possible and investigate immediately.

At our workshop, we carry out vehicle diagnostics every day. Many faults turn out to be quick and inexpensive fixes when caught early — helping you avoid bigger repair bills later on.

If a warning light has appeared on your dashboard, get in touch and let us diagnose the issue before it becomes a more serious problem.

Here’s one of our technicians at River Valley replacing the boot struts.
When boot struts fail, the tailgate becomes heavy to lift and difficult to hold open — something that can quickly become frustrating for the owner. Replacing worn struts restores smooth, safe operation
