Mini Cooper S
dash lights will save you a lot of trouble. They warn you when there is an issue with your Mini.
Color is the best way to differentiate between your dash lights. Red lights indicate serious trouble while orange lights are a warning. Green lights are indicators and should not be cause for concern.
Here are the dash lights you should know:
  • Battery: Problem with your electrical system, battery, or alternator
  • Person: Collision with a person is imminent
  • Lock and key: Ignition switch issue
  • Exclamation point in a circle: Braking system is impaired
If your Mini Cooper S displays a dashboard light and you don’t know what it means, you should check your owner’s manual.
