Yellow Indicator Lights - RAM 1500 CLASSIC 2020 Owner's Manual

114 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
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 as
soon as possible. However, the conventional brake
system will continue to operate normally,
assuming the Brake Warning Light is not also on.
If the ABS light does not turn on when the ignition
is placed in the ON/RUN or ACC/ON/RUN position,
have the brake system inspected by an authorized
dealer.
Low Coolant Level Warning Light
This telltale will turn on to indicate the
vehicle coolant level is low.
Refer to "Dealer Service" in "Servicing
And Maintenance" for further
information.
Loose Fuel Filler Cap Warning Light —
If Equipped
This warning light will illuminate when
the fuel filler cap is loose. Properly close
the filler cap to disengage the light. If the
light does not turn off, please see an
authorized dealer.
Service 4WD Warning Light — If Equipped
This warning light will illuminate to
signal a fault with the 4WD system. If the
light stays on or comes on during
driving, it means that the 4WD system is
not functioning properly and that service is
required. We recommend you drive to the nearest
service center and have the vehicle serviced
immediately.
Transmission Temperature Warning Light
This light indicates that the
transmission fluid temperature is
running hot. This may occur with severe
usage, such as trailer towing. If this light
turns on, safely pull over and stop the vehicle.
Then, shift the transmission into PARK (P) and run
the engine at idle or slightly higher until the light
turns off.
WARNING!
If you continue operating the vehicle when the
Transmission Temperature Warning Light is
illuminated you could cause the fluid to boil over,
come in contact with hot engine or exhaust
components and cause a fire.
CAUTION!
Continuous driving with the Transmission
Temperature Warning Light illuminated will
eventually cause severe transmission damage
or transmission failure.

the cargo light button on the headlight
switch.
4WD Indicator Light — If Equipped
This light alerts the driver that the vehicle
is in the four-wheel drive mode, and the
front and rear driveshafts are
mechanically locked together forcing the
front and rear wheels to rotate at the same speed.
4WD Low Indicator Light — If Equipped
This light alerts the driver that the
vehicle is in the four-wheel drive LOW
mode. The front and rear driveshafts are
mechanically locked together forcing
the front and rear wheels to rotate at the same
speed. Low range provides a greater gear
reduction ratio to provide increased torque at the
wheels.

in "Starting And Operating" for further information
on four-wheel drive operation and proper use.
