Yellow Warning Lights - Fiat 500 L 2019 User Manual

Yellow Warning Lights

— Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Warning
Light
This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS). The light will turn on when the ignition is
placed in the ON/RUN or MAR/ON/RUN posi-
tion and may stay on for as long as four seconds.
If the ABS light remains on or turns on while
driving, then the Anti-Lock portion of the brake
system is not functioning and service is required.
However, the conventional brake system will
continue to operate normally if the brake warning
light is not on.
If the ABS light is on, the brake system should be
serviced as soon as possible to restore the
benefits of Anti-Lock Brakes. If the ABS light does
not turn on when the ignition is placed in the
ON/RUN or MAR/ON/RUN position, have the
light inspected by an authorized dealer.
— Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
Warning Light — If Equipped
The "ESC Indicator Light" in the instrument
cluster will come on when the ignition is placed in
the ON/RUN or MAR/ON/RUN position, and
42
when ESC is activated. It should go out with the
engine running. If the "ESC Indicator Light" comes
on continuously with the engine running, a mal-
function has been detected in the ESC system. If
this light remains on after several ignition cycles,
and the vehicle has been driven several miles
(kilometers) at speeds greater than 30 mph
(48 km/h), see your authorized dealer as soon as
possible to have the problem diagnosed and
corrected.
• The "ESC Off Indicator Light" and the "ESC
Indicator Light" come on momentarily each
time the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN or
MAR/ON/RUN position.
• Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN or
MAR/ON/RUN, the ESC system will be on,
even if it was turned off previously.
• The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking
sounds when it is active. This is normal; the
sounds will stop when ESC becomes inactive.
• This light will come on when the vehicle is in an
ESC event.
— Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Off
Warning Light — If Equipped
This warning light indicates the Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) is off.
Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN or
ACC/ON/RUN, the ESC system will be on, even
if it was turned off previously.
— Low Fuel Indicator Light
When the fuel level reaches approximately
3.0 gal (11.0 L) this light will turn on, and remain
on until fuel is added.
— Engine Check/Malfunction Indica-
tor Warning Light (MIL)
The Engine Check/Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) is a part of an Onboard Diagnostic System
called OBD II that monitors engine and automatic
transmission control systems. This warning light
will illuminate when the ignition is in the ON/
RUN position before engine start. If the bulb
does not come on when turning the ignition
switch from OFF to ON/RUN, have the condition
checked promptly.
