mrmombigfoot Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 I have a 1994 LS 400. A service indicator light symbol has started to appear, but the owner's manual does not explain what trouble or system this symbol is related to. It just says take it to a Lexus dealer. It is an orange light near the bottom of the panel; it's circle with three lines on the outside of the circle on both sides. What does this mean? Thanks!
SW03ES Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 ABS light maybe? Also, no need to post multiple threads, I've deleted all but this one because this is probably the best forum for your question.
ToddLS400 Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 I saw a little orange light in my dash yesterday that looks like a air filter or something? It came on then went away when I was driving. Is there a warning light for a dirty air filter or something? It had the shape of like a little orange 2 gallon milk jug with vertical lines going thru it. Does anybody know what that warning light means? I know it lights up then goes away when starting the car like most lights in the dash.
VMF Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 guys its brake pads light. it means ur brake pad sensor tells u to check ur brake pads.
VBdenny Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 I think it's the coolant temperature light. I guess I could go look it up. I just did. It means ADD ENGINE COOLANT. You're probably just a little low.
ToddLS400 Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 guys its brake pads light. it means ur brake pad sensor tells u to check ur brake pads. Are you serious? There's a brake pad indicator light? Cool... I know my brake pads are getting low so that makes sense.
ToddLS400 Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 I think it's the coolant temperature light. I guess I could go look it up. I just did. It means ADD ENGINE COOLANT. You're probably just a little low. Oh, ok. I have some extra coolant in the garage. I'll do that. I guess that makes sense. It's probably the shape of a little radiator?
VMF Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 never heard about low coolant light if it looks smth like this (o) then it means that its a brake pads are worn.
ToddLS400 Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 _/\_ [|||] It looks something like that with the color orange.
jzz30 Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 yup its the coolant light. in the resovor( thats not how to spell it i know) that sensor seems to go bad alot cus both my LS and SC have that light come on and off. the sensor might just be dirty but i never bothered to look
92LS400 Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 I had the same light show up on my '92. Added some coolant and haven't seen it since.
JPI Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 Sometimes the sensor is stuck and it give you the false reading. Check your coolant level if it's low then top it off. Otherwise take your coolant level sensor out and clean it. Coolant level sensor located on the reservoir. JPI
