ŠKODA Dashboard Warning Lights

By many, it was once considered an embarrassment to own one and the brunt of many jokes. Fast-forward a few decades and ŠKODA is now considered one of the best cars  for reliability, ride quality, running costs and practicality. As good as ŠKODA is, they do like all cars, have their problems.

Almost all modern cars have an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) which is essentially a computer that controls and monitors various electrical and mechanical systems around your vehicle. Faults are detected by the use of sensors which are located around the vehicle that relay information to the ECU. The ECU will then trigger a dashboard warning symbol to alert the driver of an issue.

Although dashboard warning lights are universally the same colour system; blue, green, amber and red, certain symbols may be specific to a manufacturer or model of car.



In general, blue and green lights indicate that a utility is active, amber / yellow or orange lights indicate that something requires attention but is non-urgent and red indicates an issue that requires the drivers immediate attention. A red symbol may be hazardous to driver and passenger safety, or may represent potential damage to the vehicle unless immediate action is taken. These are the various dashboard warning lights for ŠKODA cars and their various models.
