INFINITI Vehicle Dashboard Warning Indicators
Your vehicle has a variety of dashboard warning indicators and lights that let you know when something needs attention. If you’re not sure what your vehicle warning indicators mean, don’t worry! Our guide helps you quickly identify vehicle dashboard indicators so you can properly maintain and repair your car.
Airbag Fault
An illuminated airbag fault indicator should be addressed immediately, as it can pose a safety hazard on the road. If this warning light stays on after starting the car, there’s a fault in the airbag system that requires a professional technician to inspect.
Low Fuel Level
This vehicle warning indicator signals a gas or low fuel level. If this dashboard light comes on, it’s time to stop for gas as soon as possible!
Oil Pressure
Among essential vehicle warning indicators, the oil pressure light alerts you that your engine oil level or pressure is low. Check your oil level immediately, and if this dashboard light remains illuminated while driving, bring your car in for a professional evaluation.
Service Vehicle Soon
Your vehicle is designed to have routine maintenance at regular mileage intervals. This service indicator light illuminates when it’s time for an oil change or routine inspection. When you bring your car in for service, our technicians can reset the light.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

Charging System
If this charging system indicator illuminates, there may be an issue with your battery, alternator, or electrical system. If this warning light comes on while driving, pull over safely and contact a technician immediately.
Brake System
The brake system warning indicator illuminates if sensors detect an issue with your Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) or brake fluid levels. Whenever this dashboard light comes on, schedule a professional brake service inspection right away.
Open Door
This door indicator light turns on when a cabin door or trunk hatch is left open. Check to ensure all doors are securely latched to clear this warning indicator.
