What's this light about?
I have a light coming on now and end that shows a car going down hill on the dashboard and it’s not in the book and I don’t know what it mean’s can you help me.
Our answer:
Hi Roger,
I wonder have you accidentally switched a 'hill descent control' system on accidentally. Not all cars have it, and it helps control the speed of a car as it goes down a steep hill, but its operation is usually denoted by a lamp in the instrumentation as described by you.
