Hello everybody it's Lurgs here welcome to my channel and today the Nissan Juke

the dashboard lights and what they mean ,the instrument panel.

But before we get started telling you about all the different warning lights we better

have a lovely cup of tea, Oh lovely.

So here we are inside the Nissan Juke and let's turn on the ignition and then let's get started.

Okay so the first one on the instrument panel is the engine coolant temperature

gauge, obviously if this gets anywhere near the top near the hot you need to pull

over because you do not want to be carrying on driving if the engine is overheating.

And this one is pretty self-explanatory this is the fuel gauge, again if don't let this get too low.

If it gets really really low then you start to pick up sludge and dirt from the bottom

of your fuel tank which is not good for your engine.

And this gauge here is the outside temperature you can change this to Fahrenheit but this is set at centigrade,

and it's currently 18 degrees hmm toasty

Now this light here only applies if

you've got an automatic gearbox so this

would currently be in Park mode if it's

an automatic gearbox this shows you what

gear you're in.

And these are the left and right indicators if both of these

are flashing it means obviously you've got your hazard lights on.

CVT means continuously variable transmission this

is where you do not have a gearbox as such, it's just a seamless transition as it gets faster and faster.

If this light is permanently on it means you've got a problem with it.

This is the airbag warning light so get that checked out because you've got a problem with your airbags.

This means your engine requires servicing and on different models it may look like this.

There is a problem with the engine oil pressure do not drive any further get that checked out immediately.

Your fog lights are on, foggy

This is the intelligent key warning system this should go out if it doesn't then you need to get your key checked out at the local dealer.

This is the tire pressure monitoring system, so if this light stays on permanently you've got a problem with

one of your tires, just go around to all 4 tires make sure that they are at the correct pressure.

The all wheel drive warning lights now this can be either this light or the other light, this means you've got a problem

with your all-wheel-drive system get that checked out.

Your high beam headlights are on, very dark is it?

This means that the vehicle dynamic control system has been turned off

which means the anti skid control system is off so if it's very wet or gravelly and you put your foot down hard it will spin the wheels.

This is the vehicle dynamic control warning light this will just flash on if the wheels have skidded or you've gone round

a corner and it's wet or it's icy and the wheels are failing to get good traction.

This is the battery charge warning light if this stays lit it probably means

you've got a problem with your alternator so this battery isn't charging while you're driving along get that checked out.

This is the engine start indicator light this basically means that you're okay to start the engine it's normally only on automatic

vehicles to make sure that you're in Park mode.

PS now this doesn't mean PS I've got something to tell you this means PS power steering so you've got a

problem with your power steering and you probably know you have because it'll be

really hard to steer get that checked out.

If this stays permanently lit it means somebody has not got their seatbelt on tut-tut-tut clunk click every trip.

One of the doors on the vehicle is open.

The brake warning light, this normally means that you've got the handbrake on

and on slightly different models it may look like this.

Now if this ABS light is permanently on it means you've got a problem with your anti-lock braking

system, it's probably due to one of the sensors on the wheels which needs

replacing so get that checked out as soon as possible.

And that brings me to the end of the dashboard warning lights.

Hopefully there you found that useful and I'm just going to put up a list of all the other ones which are available.
