What do the dash lights in my Volkswagen Rabbit mean?
Yesterday on the final stretch of my road trip with my Volkswagen Rabbit, an unfamiliar dash light came on. I made it home without any complications, but I’m afraid it must’ve got damaged on my road trip. Can you tell me what the dash lights in my Volkswagen Rabbit mean?

Before you panic about your
Volkswagen Rabbit
dash lights, let’s go over the three categories of dashboard lights your light could fit into: - Vehicle feature symbols, including high beam engagement, parking brake engagement, or whether your daytime running lights are on
- Vehicle warning symbols that alert you to your engine coolant temperature, oil pressure, seat belt functionality, and tire pressure
- Other vehicle symbols like your air conditioning system and vehicle power
If a red light comes up on your Volkswagen Rabbit, safely pull over to the side of the road and get roadside assistance. If the light is yellow, prioritize getting your car into a repair shop. Green lights on your Volkswagen dashboard don’t communicate problems. Instead, they alert you to whether different features are in use.
Navigating your car’s dashboard lights can be quite a headache, but signing up for great car insurance shouldn’t be. With
