I was getting ready for a 400 km trip to Tula. At 5 am I left, picked up a colleague, while I was waiting for him, I went out to clean the windshield wipers. The engine stalled. I'm starting again. The water in fuel sensor came on. I went to a gas station, filled up with anti-gel and 56 liters of fuel. It's -13° outside. Well, I think it'll blow up in a minute. I just leave the city, the car doesn’t pull, it’s fine at idle, but it stalls under load. The check light came on, the check with an exclamation mark to boot. I drained the fuel from the separator, pumped it, and started it up. Looks like she's gone. I decided to drive through the city to the exit to the highway from another region, and decide whether the car would go to Tulu or not. I drove fine, the check went out. As soon as I got on the highway, it was the same story again. 20 km per hour in second gear, full throttle to the house. It took a long time to sort all the things, the tools, into the passenger savior, because... it was difficult to climb... the snow was still knee-deep and not ending. I went to Tula and Moscow at the same time. I bought an original fuel filter and changed it. The car drove off, but it was terribly slow. I drove around the city in circles for 3 hours. The next day everything is sad again. Went in for diagnostics. Lots of errors on fuel, pressure... one error on the camshaft and the last one. I got to work. It started up there, didn't drive, now it starts and stalls. Through the miracle of the Gas Assistance program, on February 1st in the morning, he will travel from Kursk to Belgorod to the official dealer on a tow truck at the expense of the manufacturer, I will post the news below) News from the fields) They asked me to sit for 4 hours. They called. Let's go for a ride with the receptionist. We drove 10 kilometers around the city - the flight was normal. I ask what happened. They say that I didn’t click the connector on the filter, although I double-checked it... Well, okay, I picked up the docks at the reception, and off I went.
Scheduled Maintenance
Regular maintenance is the key to vehicle efficiency, reliability and safety.
It must be remembered that the responsibility for maintaining the vehicle in a reliable, serviceable condition rests entirely with its owner. The work performed during maintenance is indicated in the service book attached to the vehicle. Carry out maintenance at a service station.
Safety precautions during maintenance:
It is necessary to turn off the instruments and the starter and remove the key unless otherwise required during maintenance. Hands, tools and clothing should not be in the area of drive belts or pulleys while the engine is running. The radiator cooling fan may turn on at any time
Keep hands and clothing away from the fan blades. Take precautions when working on a hot engine. It is not allowed to touch wires and electrical equipment when the devices and starter are turned on. Do not leave the engine running in an unventilated area. If possible, work in the engine compartment with the engine off and the negative terminal of the battery disconnected. If it is necessary to carry out work in the engine compartment while the engine is running, it is necessary to place the car on a solid and level horizontal platform and brake the car with the parking brake. Do not work under a vehicle supported only by a jack.
For safety, you should put chocks under the wheels. Sparks and open flames are not allowed near the battery and fuel system parts. No smoking. Many operating fluids used in cars are toxic. It is unacceptable for them to come into contact with the skin or eyes. If necessary, protective gloves should be worn. Follow label and container directions. You must protect your eyes when working under a vehicle. Prolonged contact with engine oil may cause skin irritation. Hands should be washed thoroughly after contact.
Types of maintenance
The following types of maintenance are established:
- Daily Maintenance (DM).
- Periodic maintenance (MOT).
- Seasonal maintenance (MS).
Seasonal maintenance is performed once a year, together with regular maintenance.
The frequency of maintenance is determined depending on the operating conditions of the vehicle.
GAZelle Business dashboard: description of icons
The dashboard of a car with a UMZ 4216 engine has 26 current status indicators. Lamps and devices are divided into three groups:
- notifying;
- indicator;
- warning.
The third on the list is a type of signal that is reflected in red and requires immediate intervention from the motorist. Serious breakdowns or problems with the machine are displayed here.
The photo shows the location of all elements of the 2016 Gazelle Business tidy.
Important! In versions 2010, 2012 and 2022, the location of the indicators and the design of the tidy itself may differ.
A complete decoding of combinations and decoding of icons describes the appearance and functional decoding.
- 1 – Fuel tank full indicator. The pointer element is based on a mechanical principle and rarely fails.
- 2 – Speedometer. The electronic part has a gradation of 20 km/h from 0 to 200.
- 3 – Handbrake operating position indicator. If the handbrake is raised, the element lights up red. The serviceability of the line is checked when the ignition is turned on - the lamp flickers. If the car starts moving, the indicator is duplicated by an additional sound signal.
- 4 – Battery health indicator. If the lamp ignites, there are problems with charging or the integrity of the battery is compromised. You need to check the generator wires and measure the voltage at the output terminals.
- 5/9 – turn signal indicators. It also indicates that the hazard warning system is activated. When switched on, they blink green.
- 6 – emergency oil pressure indicator. When the ignition is turned on, the light comes on - this indicates that the electrical line is working properly. When the engine reaches idle speed, the lamp goes out, which indicates that the required pressure has been built up. In some cases, the indicator begins to blink during a critical decrease in the crankshaft speed. When you let it go, everything becomes normal.
- 7 – STOP is located strictly in the center of the instrument and lights up simultaneously with some elements. The combination indicates that further use of the vehicle is strictly prohibited until the breakdown is repaired. A failure can be identified by the icon lighting up at the same time.
- 8 – ECM unit status indicator. The warning light is activated immediately after the ignition is turned on and does not go out for 7-8 seconds. If the sequence is followed, this indicates that the module is ready to start the engine. If the indicator periodically flashes while driving, one of the circuit elements has failed or there is an error in the electronic engine control system.
- 10 – indicator of the anti-lock brake system. When it is activated, the operation of the mechanism is disrupted. You can find out about the presence of a module in the vehicle's service manual.
- 11 – standard tachometer. The magnetic circuit is lined from 0 to 6 and indicates the actual speed of the crankshaft.
- 12 – the EBD option is installed on some vehicle modifications. Usually mounted in tandem with an ABS device. The indicator is displayed in the upper right corner. The ebd light says that the brakes are not working properly, the electronic force distribution is broken - requires immediate repair. If you continue to drive the car, the calipers may not work properly.
- 13 – indicator that the doors are closed correctly. If the car is moving with the locks open, the icon lights up and sounds a sound signal.
- 14 – the lamp is installed on a Cummins engine with a 4x4 drive and is responsible for indicating that the transfer clutch is engaged. Not used on vehicles version 3302 and similar.
- 15 – critical overheating lamp of the power unit. If an element is displayed on the dashboard, you need to stop immediately and turn off the engine. Continued use of the car until the antifreeze cools down is fraught with irreversible consequences for the car. In some situations, pipes rupture and the piston group jams.
- 16 – pointer indicator of the actual engine coolant temperature. Driving is allowed until the pointer moves into the red zone. The normal position is approximately in the middle of the scale in the green compartment.
- 17 – service key “mode” – installed on all modifications of cars.
- 18/22 – the light indicates that the rear/front fog lights are on. When the lighting is turned off, the indicator goes out.
- 19 – the indicator is intended to notify the driver about the inclusion of the high-range head lighting mode.
- 20 – indicator for turning on the headlights, located in the central part of the LCD display, paralleled by an audible alarm.
- 21 – indicator for turning on the low beam headlights.
- 23 – emergency loss of brake fluid volume in the expansion tank. When the indicator turns on, you must immediately stop and check the serviceability of the lines, eliminate leaks and replenish the tank.
- 24 – odometer. The lower part indicates the daily mileage, the upper part indicates the total mileage.
- 25 – reset key – using the control, the accumulated kilometers per day are reset to zero.
- 26 – fuel tank reserve lamp, lights up when most of the fuel is used up. The indicator lights up when there is no more than 8 liters of gasoline left in the fuel tank. It is prohibited to move in this mode for a long time - this may damage the pressure pump.

Scheduled Maintenance
Regular maintenance is the key to the efficiency, reliability and safety of the bus. It must be remembered that the responsibility for maintaining the bus in a reliable, serviceable condition rests entirely with its owner.
The work performed during maintenance is indicated in the service book attached to the bus. Carry out maintenance at a service station.
Safety precautions during maintenance:
It is necessary to turn off the instruments and the starter and remove the key unless otherwise required during maintenance. Hands, tools and clothing should not be in the area of drive belts or pulleys while the engine is running. The radiator fan may turn on at any time
Keep hands and clothing away from the fan blade area. Take precautions when working on a hot engine. It is not allowed to touch wires and electrical equipment when the devices and starter are turned on. Do not leave the engine running in an unventilated area. If possible, work in the engine compartment with the engine off and the negative terminals of the battery disconnected. If it is necessary to carry out work in the engine compartment while the engine is running, it is necessary to place the bus on a solid and level horizontal platform and brake the bus with the parking brake. You cannot work under a bus supported only by a jack.
For safety, you should put chocks under the wheels. Sparks and open flames are not allowed near the battery and fuel system parts. No smoking. Many operating fluids used in buses are toxic. It is unacceptable for them to come into contact with the skin or eyes. If necessary, protective gloves should be worn. Follow label and container directions. You must protect your eyes when working under a bus. Prolonged contact with engine oil may cause skin irritation. Hands should be washed thoroughly after contact.

Seat belts
Seat belts are an effective means of protecting the driver and passengers from the serious consequences of road accidents.
Cars can be equipped with two types of belts: three-point (diagonal-waist) with inertial reels, two-point (waist) with automatic reels, or static with manual adjustment of the belt length. In the first case, the belts do not need adjustment. In the second case, individual adjustment of the belt length is necessary; the waist strap should fit snugly to the hips. The length of the strap is changed using a regulator.
The seat belts of the driver and front right passenger are equipped with mechanisms that allow you to adjust the upper guide of the seat belt in height, thereby ensuring ease of use of the belt for people of different height groups.
To adjust the position of the top guide, pull button 1 towards you and at the same time move it either up or down as necessary.
For fastening with a belt
slowly (without jerking) pull the belt strap by tongue 1 so that its length along the chest and hips is approximately the same, and insert it into the lock 2 corresponding to the seat until a characteristic click is heard.
The top of the belt should pass through the middle of the shoulder and never over the neck or under the arm, and should fit snugly around the upper torso.
The lap part of the belt should lie as low as possible and always fit snugly against the hips. Otherwise, you should release the belt and pull it.
To release the belts
press the red button 3 of the corresponding lock. In this case, the tongue will be pushed out of its socket by the spring. Pull the belt strap back by the tongue with your hand to make it easier for the mechanism to wind it up.
Pregnant women must also wear seat belts. It must be remembered that the belt should be positioned in such a way as to avoid any pressure on the abdomen. The waist part of the belt should be located below the stomach.
ATTENTION!
Belts that have experienced heavy loads in a traffic accident or that have abrasions, tears or other damage must be replaced with appropriate new seat belt assemblies.
Any changes in the design of seat belts are unacceptable. It is forbidden for two people to fasten themselves with the same seat belt; it is especially unacceptable to fasten a child sitting on a passenger’s lap with a belt.

Economical driving
Bus driving style is the most important factor affecting fuel consumption.
— Maintain a sufficient distance from the vehicle in front to allow you to move more smoothly in traffic. Avoid sudden acceleration and frequent braking.
— As the speed increases, the resistance to the movement of the bus increases, and therefore fuel consumption increases. In addition, as the speed of the bus increases, the wear rate of the tires increases. — For economical driving mode, it is recommended to select a gear in the crankshaft speed range from 1600 to 2400 min-1, which corresponds to the green zone of the tachometer.
Driving under load in higher gears with a low crankshaft speed leads to increased fuel consumption, increased noise in the transmission and more intensive wear of engine parts.
Incorrect use of lower gears with increased crankshaft speed, sudden acceleration and driving at high speeds also lead to increased fuel consumption.
The general condition of the bus and the serviceability of its systems largely determine fuel consumption.
— Maintain the bus in technically sound condition at all times. The values of the adjustable parameters must comply with the manufacturer's requirements.
— Check the air pressure in your tires regularly. Insufficient pressure increases rolling resistance. This leads to increased fuel consumption, increased tire wear and a negative impact on the behavior of the bus on the road.
Increased tire pressure beyond normal limits negatively affects the smooth running of the bus.
The activation of the engine management system malfunction indicator while driving indicates that the engine is operating in standby mode, accompanied by increased fuel consumption.
The characteristics and operating conditions of the bus have a significant impact on fuel consumption.
— Insufficiently heated oil in the engine and transmission units leads to increased resistance and wear of rubbing surfaces. For faster warm-up, we recommend starting to drive at moderate engine speeds without sudden acceleration one to two minutes after starting a cold engine. At low ambient temperatures and after a long period of parking, it is recommended to drive for some time in lower gears with a low engine speed.
Use only lubricants recommended by the manufacturer. The temperature range of the oil used in the engine lubrication system must correspond to the stable ambient temperature range.
— Avoid driving short distances where you have to stop the engine and then start it again. This prevents the engine from reaching normal operating temperature. — Avoid running the engine unnecessarily while parked. — Avoid carrying unnecessary items and cargo on the bus.
Reporting a malfunction
The battery icon lights up if the voltage in the on-board network drops; often this problem is associated with a lack of battery charge from the generator, so it can also be called the “alternator icon”. On vehicles with a hybrid engine, this indicator is supplemented by the inscription “MAIN” at the bottom.
The oil icon , also known as a red oil can, indicates a drop in the oil level in the car engine. This icon lights up when you start the engine, and does not go out after a few seconds or may light up while driving. This fact indicates problems in the lubrication system or a drop in oil level or pressure. The oil icon on the panel may have a droplet or waves at the bottom; on some cars the indicator is supplemented with the inscription min, senso, oil level (yellow inscriptions) or simply the letters L and H (characterizing low and high oil levels).
The airbag icon can light up in several ways: either the red inscription SRS and AIRBAG, or “a red man wearing a seat belt,” with a circle in front of him. When one of these airbag icons lights up on the panel, the on-board computer notifies you of a malfunction in the passive safety system, and in the event of an accident, the airbags will not deploy. Read the article on the website for the reasons why the airbag sign lights up and how to fix the problem.
The exclamation mark icon may look different and its meaning will accordingly be different. So, for example, when the red (!) light is on in the circle, this indicates a malfunction of the brake system and it is advisable not to continue driving until the cause of its occurrence is determined. They can be very different: the handbrake is up, the brake pads are worn out, or the brake fluid level has dropped. A low level is precisely what poses a danger, because the reason may not only be in heavily worn pads, as a result of which, when you press the pedal, the fluid disperses throughout the system, and the float gives a signal about a low level, the brake hose may be damaged somewhere, and this is much more serious. Although, very often the exclamation mark lights up if the float (level sensor) is faulty or shorted, and then it simply lies. On some cars, the exclamation mark is accompanied by the words “BRAKE”, but this does not change the essence of the problem.
An exclamation mark can also light up in the form of an “attention” sign, both on a red and yellow background. When the yellow “attention” sign lights up, it informs about a malfunction in the electronic stabilization system, and if it is on a red background, it simply warns the driver about something, and, as a rule, explanatory text is displayed on the dashboard display or combined with other informative text designation.
The ABS icon may have several display options on the dashboard, but regardless of this, it means the same thing on all cars - a problem has occurred in the ABS system, and that the anti-lock wheel system is not working at the moment. You can find out the reasons why ABS does not work in our article. In this case, movement can be made, but there is no need to rely on the ABS to activate; the brakes will operate as usual.
The ESP icon may either light up intermittently or stay on constantly. A light with this inscription indicates problems with the stabilization system. The Electronic Stability Program indicator, as a rule, lights up for one of two reasons - either the rotation angle sensor has failed, or the brake light sensor (aka “frog”) has died for a long time. Although, there can be a more serious problem, for example, the brake system pressure sensor is covered.
The engine icon , some drivers may call it the “injector icon” or check, may glow yellow when the engine is running. It informs about the presence of engine errors and malfunctions of its electronic systems. To determine the reason for its appearance on the dashboard display, self-diagnosis or computer diagnostics are performed.
The glow plug icon may light up on the dashboard of a diesel car; the meaning of such an indicator is exactly the same as the “check” icon on gasoline cars. When there are no errors in the electronic unit’s memory, the spiral icon should go out after the engine warms up and the glow plugs are turned off. Read how to check glow plugs here.
Gazelle Next
Gazelle Next is a car that has been almost completely changed compared to the previous model. Body, interior, engine, steering, independent suspension - these are just the main changes. The car has become safer, more comfortable, more manageable, and more economical. Due to such deep modernization, the car has become more complex. This means that servicing it requires much higher qualifications. Our company has many years of experience (since the next gazelles appeared on the roads) in repairing cars of this make and model. And now a little more about the changes.
Body
Compared to the previous model, it has undergone significant changes. The frame has been strengthened, the metal parts of the body are now galvanized, which means that in the future there will be significantly fewer problems with corrosion. Inside, the driver will have electric windows, an adjustable seat, and heated mirrors. As the number of electricians increases, more problems will inevitably arise with their repair.
Engine
The new diesel engine for the gazelle next is the Cummins ISF. It is more powerful and economical than the engines of previous models. Owners speak of it as a reliable engine with good dynamics. However, even such an engine can develop problems over time. Engine repairs must be carried out in station conditions. Repairs should be carried out by professionals. Grad Auto has all the necessary equipment and personnel to perform repairs of any complexity: from replacing a valve cover to a complete engine overhaul.
Suspension, brakes, steering
The suspension, brakes and steering of the gazelle next have undergone significant changes. Towing and anti-skid systems were added to the car, providing more effective braking and safety. The suspension of the new gazelle is independent, spring. It is more comfortable, but not as reliable as the old spring one. The steering has become rack and pinion, which has dramatically improved handling.
Contact our service and be confident in the quality of repairs for your gazelle. We provide a guarantee for all work.

Bus movement
It is recommended to start driving the bus with a partially warmed up engine. If this is not possible, and the engine is warmed up while the bus is moving, then at low ambient temperatures and after a long stay, it is recommended to move for some time in lower gears with a low engine speed. As it warms up, gradually shift to higher gears.
When overcoming a ford, make sure that its depth, taking into account the oncoming wave and the water shaft in front of the bus, does not exceed the height of the lower edge of the front buffer above the road surface; in this case, you must move at the minimum possible speed, not exceeding 20 km/h, in order to avoid water being thrown into the air intake air filter.
After overcoming a ford, after washing the bus, as well as when driving for a long time on a wet road, when water gets into the brake mechanisms of the wheels, it is necessary to perform several smooth braking while driving to dry the discs, drums and brake linings.
When driving through puddles, reduce your speed to avoid hydroplaning, which can cause skidding or loss of control; With worn tires this danger increases.
If possible, drive the bus without sudden acceleration and deceleration, as this leads to increased tire wear and increased fuel consumption.
Driving a bus in 3rd, 4th and 5th gears at low engine speeds (up to 1500 rpm) leads to additional loads on the engine and transmission and may be accompanied by the appearance of resonance phenomena in the transmission. Driving in these modes is not recommended. To avoid such phenomena, you should switch to a lower gear.
To avoid damage to the plastic housing of the clutch master cylinder, it is prohibited to operate the clutch pedal in the direction opposite to its normal movement to disengage the clutch when the bus rod is connected to the clutch pedal.
To ensure long-lasting operation of the gearbox when operating the bus, be sure to follow the following rules, which will ensure easy and silent gear shifting:
1. The clutch drive must ensure complete disengagement of the clutch. When the pedal is depressed, the clutch should not “drive”.
2. All gear changes should be carried out by smoothly moving the lever only after the clutch is completely disengaged. Shifting gears too quickly leads to premature wear of the synchronizers or their failure. It is not allowed to change gears with the clutch not completely disengaged, as well as to simultaneously operate the pedal and lever.
3. It is not allowed to engage the clutch when the gear is not disengaged.
4. Engage the rear entry gear only after the bus has come to a complete stop.
The driving axle of the bus is equipped with a bevel gear differential, which allows the bus wheels to rotate at different speeds, which is necessary to ensure stability and controllability when the bus is moving. Long-term (more than 5 minutes) slipping of one of the wheels of the drive axle can lead to overheating of the differential parts and its failure. If such a situation arises, use available means to improve wheel grip on the road or evacuate the bus from a dangerous area in tow.

2 – Indicator (red) of critical engine malfunction.
Lights up briefly when the instruments (ignition) are turned on. If there are no malfunctions, it lights up when the devices (ignition) are turned on and lights continuously for 2-5 seconds, then goes out.
When lit continuously, it informs the driver about the presence of a critical malfunction (engine overheating, drop in oil pressure, gas pedal failure, critical malfunction of the electronic unit) in which case it is necessary to immediately stop driving and stop the engine.
3 – Indicator (orange) MIL.
Lights up briefly when the instruments (ignition) are turned on. Informs the driver about malfunctions recorded by the on-board diagnostic system related to exhaust gas and particulate emissions.
If the indicator lights up continuously, it is necessary to diagnose the engine control system at a maintenance facility.
After the malfunction is eliminated, the indicator remains on for four engine starting cycles, then goes out.
4 – Indicator (orange) “Attention” of the engine control system.
If the control system is working properly, the indicator lights up after turning on the devices (ignition) and lights continuously for 2-5 seconds, then goes out.
This indicates that the system is ready to start the engine.
When lit continuously, it informs the driver about the presence of a non-critical fault, in which case the driver can continue driving. In this case, the vehicle needs to be diagnosed at a maintenance facility.
5 – Signal lamp (green) for turning on the left direction indicators.
6 – Indicator (white) for turning on daytime running lights.

9 – Signal indicator (red) “STOP”.
Lights up simultaneously with one of the indicators 2, 16, 19, 20 and 21. When these indicators light up, further operation of the vehicle is not allowed until the malfunction is eliminated.
Cooling system
Check the coolant level in expansion tank 2 only on a cold engine.
The liquid level in the expansion tank must not be lower than the MIN mark and not higher than the upper welded flange (MAX mark).
Add coolant through the expansion tank hole, closed with plug 1. If you add fluid frequently, check the tightness of the cooling system.
If the drop in fluid level is caused by a leak in the system, correct the problem and bring the level back to normal.
If the system is sealed, a decrease in level is possible as a result of boiling of the liquid when the engine overheats. The reasons for overheating may be the following:
- Reducing the flow of outside air to the radiator due to covering it with an insulating cover, severe clogging of the radiator fins (leaves, dust, insects), as well as installing additional headlights in front of the radiator trim.
- The fan is not working.
What is a “check engine”: what problems does a burning “check” indicate?
The warning light comes on for the following reason: the engine ECU detects some error or failure and writes the fault into its memory in the form of a specific code. In parallel with this, the control unit initiates the lightning of the check. Let us add that on some cars that have a developed self-diagnosis system, such an error can be immediately deciphered and the data is displayed on the on-board computer screen. Simpler versions of the car will require connecting a special scanner to the diagnostic connector, after which the error code is read for further detailed decoding.
It is worth noting separately that if the check engine light is on when you turn on the ignition, then this is an absolutely normal phenomenon and is not a malfunction. The icon should normally go out after the engine starts, that is, after the internal combustion engine begins to operate independently. A cause for concern is the situation when the engine is running and a lighted check mark is present on the panel after starting.
As already mentioned, the ECU records various errors, after which the check light comes on. This means that the malfunction can be either a serious breakdown or a minor problem. In any case, further operation of the vehicle is not recommended, since the car requires immediate diagnostics. At the same time, experienced drivers can independently determine the cause of the check light without going to a service station or using diagnostic equipment. Let's look at the main symptoms, signs and causes of common faults that cause the warning light to come on.
Seats
We recommend adjusting the driver's seat as follows:
- Using the adjustments, set the seat so that you can fully press any vehicle control pedal without experiencing discomfort;

Where is the fuse located and how to replace it
The GAZ Next series family is represented by vehicles for various purposes - an all-metal van, an onboard vehicle, a bus for transporting passengers. Due to various design features, the marking and location of the fuse responsible for the cigarette lighter may vary. Cars have 3 fuse blocks:
- Engine compartment - under the hood of the car on the passenger side.
- There is 1 more switching device in the engine compartment on the driver's side.
- The third one is located inside the car under the steering wheel, to the left of the driver.
The cigarette lighter fuse, designed for a current of 20 A, is located in a block located in the vehicle interior. To access it, you need to pull the cover that closes the device towards you and remove it from the latches. In the left half of the mounting panel there is a control circuit relay, in the middle at the bottom of the block there is a diagnostic connector, and on the right side there are fuse links. They are divided into 2 columns of 12 fuses each. The markings go from bottom to top:
- left column - from F13 to F 24;
- right column - F1 to F12.
Depending on the year of manufacture, model and functional purpose of the car, the fuse link responsible for the operation of the cigarette lighter may be located in place F7 (seventh from the bottom in the right row) or F19 (seventh from the bottom in the left column). The fusible links on the circuit board are located compactly; to remove them from the socket, you must use special tweezers.
Warning icons on the panel
The steering wheel icon can light up in two colors. If the yellow steering wheel is on, then adaptation is required, and when a red image of the steering wheel with an exclamation mark appears, you should already be concerned about the failure of the power steering or power steering system. When the red steering wheel lights up, your steering wheel will probably become very difficult to turn.
The immobilizer icon usually blinks if the car is locked; in this case, the indicator of a red car with a white key signals the operation of the anti-theft system. But there are 3 main reasons if the immo light is constantly on: the immobilizer is not activated, if the tag on the key is not read or the anti-theft system is faulty.
