The warning lights on a Citroen DS3 indicate various issues or system statuses:
- Battery Warning Light: If illuminated, the battery is not being charged. Contact a Citroen or independent workshop. - Traction Control Warning Light: Flashes when the ESP or ASR systems are active. If illuminated along with a message, the SERVICE warning light, and a sound signal, it indicates a system fault. - STOP Warning Light: Requires immediate action. Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine, and contact a Citroen dealer or diagnose the fault using an iCarsoft i970 Citroen OBD Code Reader. - Pre-heating Warning Light: Illuminates in cold temperatures for diesel cars. - Fuel Warning Light: Indicates low fuel level; refuel as soon as possible. - Coolant Warning Light: Indicates an issue with the coolant system. - Engine Warning Light: Stays on if there is an engine malfunction. Use an iCarsoft i970 Citroen OBD Code Reader to diagnose and reset the light. - Airbag Warning Light: Indicates a problem with the airbag system that needs immediate attention.
