Warning lights

[Ellicit]

Can anyone tell me on the dash board which lights comes on when you insert the key, and turn to the second ignition....? ( before start)

can anyone take pic of it? on a BMW I saw there is a yellow period sign on and when I start the car it goes away

All of the warning lights illuminate when the key is placed in position 2 before cranking the engine (oil, altenator/battery, SES, EML, asc/dsc, etc). Some (ASC/DSC, EML, etc) will go out after a few seconds. That's the normal light check operation.

What car (model and year) do you have?

alot of the lights come on when you turn the key forward- the only thing that matters is whats on after the car is running. the exclamation point with the round arrow is for traction control- there is a button for that by the radio.
