It can certainly be unsettling when you have a dashboard light that stays on. While they may be due to a trivial issue, they could be a warning of a serious problem. We’re outlining the Chrysler Pacifica warning lights at Fields Chrysler Jeep® Dodge RAM Glenview to help you determine what’s afoot.
Oil Pressure Warning Light
If you have a dripping oil can light that’s illuminated, you probably have low oil pressure. If it’s an oil can with a thermometer rising out of it, it signals that your oil temperature is too high. If these lights come on while you’re driving, turn off your vehicle ASAP.
Engine Coolant Temperature Warning Light
Do you have a thermometer that seems to be coming out of liquid or waves? This is your engine coolant temperature warning light. If it’s on, your engine is likely overheating.
Plug Status Fault Warning Light
The plug status fault warning light looks like the end of a plug. If it’s illuminated, your PHEV isn’t charging correctly or there’s a problem with the charging station.
Battery Charge Warning Light
If a light that resembles the silhouette of a battery is on, your battery isn’t charging properly. If it stays on while you’re driving, you may have a malfunction with your charging system.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Warning Light
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) light looks like a vehicle driving with wavy lines underneath it. If it’s on, your ESC is engaged. It will say “OFF” under it when the system is off.
