Cadillac Warning Lights and Symbols Guide

Date: Nov 20, 2023

Many Maple Shade drivers are worried when they see Cadillac warning lights on their dashboard. While some may indicate an issue that requires professional attention, not all are cause for concern. In our Cadillac warning lights and symbols guide, we discuss some of the most common Cadillac warning lights you may encounter. Knowing the Cadillac dash lights meaning can help you determine when you bring your vehicle to our service center in Mount Laurel. 

Cadillac Dash Lights Meaning 

• Check Engine Light – The check engine light comes on to alert drivers that there is an OBD II problem and service is required. However, it could also be due to a minor issue, such as a loose gas cap. 
• Engine Coolant Temperature Warning Light – If the light does not go out or it comes on and stays on while you’re driving, there may be an issue with the cooling system. Stop the vehicle when it is safe, then turn off the engine to prevent engine damage. 
• Brake System Warning Light – For proper braking on Cherry Hill and Pennsauken roads, both parts of the hydraulic braking system must work correctly. When this warning light pops up, there is an issue with the braking system that needs immediate attention. 
• Tire Pressure Light – When this light is solid, one or more of your tires are significantly underinflated. A tire pressure message in the Driver Information Center (DIC) may accompany the light.
• Antilock Brake System Warning Light – For many vehicles, the ABS light will briefly pop on when the vehicle starts. If the light does not go on when it should, have the issue addressed so you can know when there is a problem with the ABS. If the ABS light stays on, turn the ignition off. If it illuminates again while you are driving, turn the vehicle off when it is safe to do so and start the engine again to reset the system. If this does not work, you will have to visit your local service center.
