what the hell is this green light?

[madsedan]

It has only come on when I've had a bad stutter while driving, once it goes out the car instantly drives like normal with full power, my owners manual doesn't show this light as even being on my cluster. It is immediately to the left of the service indicator lights, its a green light with arrows pointing left and right.
When I did the stomp test to pull the AFM code 1215 this green light is what blinked out the code, not the red check light, see my picture below...

I think it has something to do with pulling a trailer.

[RobertK]

Sounds like you have some wires crossed and that light has taken the place of your CEL.

[Aptyp]

whoa, I had to look at my cluster, I never had that come on

trailer? explain yourself sir, I'd like to know since I'm installing a hitch.

[archemedes]

someone has had your cluster out, and put the check engine light in the wrong place. I have no clue what that spot is for though

[JasonC]

I remember mikeedler saying something about that light. But i can't find the post that he talked about it in.

[drift]

i thought it was 4 way hazard lights?

[StereoInstaller1]

Isn't that the rear fog indicator?

[NC325iC]

the CEL has its own wiring going to it, when you remove the cluster you pull the entire bulb assembly out and it looks like yours was placed into the wrong hole on install

[MacBudd541]

no luke, the rear fog indicator is red and looks just like the front fog one mirrored and its just to the right of the front fog indicator, and i dont know what that green one is.

[mikeedler]

in germany when you have a trailer hitch and a trailer is connected- it is law to have an extra blinker to remind you you have a trailer behind you-- yeah, gheyness, but I didnt make the law, just relaying the message.

[DCColegrove]

Someone has mixed up the lights (they're on pigtails rather than on the conductor plate)

[golde30]

i get that light too. it comes on after hitting a bump in the road, and stays on till the car is restarted.

[Spinning Tires]

Its the first gen navigation. It lights up to tell you its time to turn. There is a voice with directions also but the speaker always goes bad

[deutschman]

you have two seconds to exit the car!


baaaaaammmmmmmmmmm!:blowup:
