Warning Light?

Post by AustinTom »

This evening when I turned my truck on, a little light came on in the dash. Its a red light maybe 3/16 in wide right over the 50 mph mark on the speedometer. What is this?

The high beam indicator light is between the number 50 and the 50 mark. Is this what you saw? If you are just seeing light after driving using the high beams, check the connection and the bulb.

Thanks guys, the high beams were on. I'd never used them before, so I never noticed.
