BMW Warning Lights Meaning

If you want to know what is the meaning of your BMW dashboard warning , you are in the right place .

The dashboard warnings are divided in three categories :

Green/Blue Warning Lights :

Anytime one of your green indicator lights comes on, there is no need to be alarmed. These lights are just informational.
Indicators of this color inform you about the status of a car component , for example : (headlights on, door open, turn signal , etc )

Yellow Warning Lights : 

Yellow indicator lights are a sign that there is a possible issue, and the yellow color is trying to tell you to use caution when driving.
If you see a yellow warning light, make sure you have your vehicle checked by a service technician as soon as possible.

Red Warning Lights :

If one of your red indicator lights comes on, stop the car immediately in a safe place and turn off the engine.
These warning lights inform you about a serious car failure or a safety issue that requires immediate drivers attention.
