This might indicate "Service", "Service Engine" or "MaintReqd". It's an indicator that you're getting close
to a scheduled maintenance interval. On some cars it's as simple as counting miles before it comes on,
whilst on others it maps engine temperatures, oil temperatures, air temperatures and other indicators
of probable stress to tell you when it might be time for new oil or a service. In most cars this can be
overridden or reset by you, the owner. Your handbook will tell you if this is the case. If you take your car
for service, the garage should reset it for you. Typically this light will come on when you start your car,
and then turn off again as part of the self-check. If it stays on for 10 seconds then turns off, it normally
means you're within 500 miles of needing a service. If it flashes for 10 seconds, it normally means you've
exceeded a recommended service interval.

Most cars nowadays have a brake warning light on the dash. Its purpose is to alert you that something is
wrong in the braking system somewhere. If it comes on, check your owner's manual to find out its
meaning. The brake warning light doesn't have a standard meaning; it could be used for multiple
purposes. For example, the same light may be used to show that the hand brake (parking brake for the
Americans amongst you) is on. If that's the case and you're driving, you ought to have noticed the smell
of burning brake dust by now. The light can also indicate that the fluid in the master cylinder is low. Each
manufacturer has a different use and standard for this light. Which is nice. Because it would be such a
drag if the same indicator meant the same thing in every vehicle.

This warning light is different in every car but normally it looks like a picture of a battery. You'll see it
come on and go off when you start your engine as part of the car's self-test, but if this light comes on
and stays on, it means the electrical charging system is no longer working properly. Think of it like a
cellphone battery. If the cellphone is plugged into the charger, you can use it indefinitely, but when you
disconnect it from the charger, there's a limited amount of time before your battery runs out. It's exactly
the same in your car, only bigger. Every car has an alternator - the charger - and a 12v battery used to
supply power to the electrical system. If the alternator becomes faulty or the drive belt to it snaps, then
it will not be able to do its job. The longer you drive, the more your car will use up the remaining juice in
the battery and eventually the engine will die. This almost always requires a new or refurbished
alternator.
