Modern bike have a two stage fuel level indicator. Flashing then solid yellow. Usually you have 5 to 10 miles when you see a flashing yellow light and about 1 mile or less when the light goes solid. Older bike had a shut-off valve and a reserve switch. You turn the switch to reserve once you bike starts to sputter or stall.

If the fuel light stay lit even after you fuel up then the sensor need replacing. That sensor in inside the gas tank.

When i start the car dashboard flash oil but my engine oil on dip stick is full what is the problem

I strongly suggest you read the vehicle handbook to fully understand the meaning of the light or indicator.

If the indicator is telling you the oil level is low, the computer might be just testing the system or the oil level sensor might be sticking or faulty.
If the indicator is telling you the oil pressure is slow to build, again it might be a circuit check or it might be an important warning.

A third possibility is a warning the oil filter is ready for a change.

Red blinking light

Hi, Ephraim. The flashing red light indicates that the device is showing "low battery". It could be that the LG phone charger fits the charging port on your bluetooth headset but it is not compatible with your device. In order for you to know that it is charging, the device should show a steady red light(means charging).
Please take a look at the table reference below.

Note: After 20 minutes on a call or of inactivity, the light stops flashing to conserve power, but the headset remains on

Hope that'll help you in some way.

My camera says low light even with high amounts of light

The low light warning means the shutter speed is too slow and you may experience hand shaking at that level of light. Try reducing your zoom level or turning on your flash.

What does "low wash" mean on a 2007 dodge ram?

This indicates that your windshield washer fluid level is low. It's like the low fuel light, it gives you times to get some before you run out. If you check the washer fluid level and it is not low then the sensor is faulty.

best wishes

Light that looks like exclamation point in a circle located below tachometer flashing.

First off you need an owner's manual. You can get a free one here. http://pdfservicemanual.com/automotive/2001-ford-taurus-owners-manual The light that looks like a gear with an exclamation point inside indicates there is a problem with the transmission. May just be low of transmission fluid. To check the level dive the car until the transmission is warm, park on a level surface, place gear shift in park with engine running, and check transmission fluid level. Add only if necessary and do not overfill. If it is not low of fluid then seek professional help. The exclamation point in a circle under the fuel gauge next to the Brake light indicates you are low of brake fluid. Check the level of the brake fluid. If it is low you more than likely need to check your brake pads as they are worn out.

Check oil light comes on at a stop and while idling

this is a light that indicates low oil pressure or low level, 1st check the oil level in the engine when it is hot, if that is ok you will need to have the oil oil pressure tested with a specail mechanical test gauge, don't wait on this, low engine oil pressure or level can quickly lead to engine failure, have a shop check this ASAP if level is ok and light still comes on.

My glowbouy flashes green and red...what does this mean

According to the owners manual for these swimming pool lights, this is what each colored indicator means. Hope this helps.


Solid green
The battery pack is fully charged.
Slow flashing green
The battery pack is almost fully charged.
Slow flashing yellow
The battery pack is half charged.
Medium flashing yellow
The battery pack is less than half charged.
Fast flashing yellow
The battery pack has almost no charge.
Fast flashing red
A charging error has occurred and the light should be unplugged and then plugged back in. If the Fast Flashing Red persists after several attempts, the battery condition is questionable.



Also in the trouble shooting guide, it mentions this:


Problem: Red Indicator Light Is Flashing While Charging

Solution:
A red flashing indicator light when charging indicates a selftest
error condition. Unplug the product and plug it in again.
Try this several times; if the indicator light continues to flash
red, unplug the GlowBuoy and take it to an authorized service
depot.

Flashing light indicators for replacing ink cartridges.

If the light is flashing no matter the speed, remove the cartridge and inspect it. If it is low you may still be able to print some more, but if it's small ink well is empty you will not be able to print even in black only until you replace the cartridge. Hope this helps.

Fuel level low symbols still shows

It's either a faulty tank sensor or a faulty fuel indicator light. Get the fuel indicator light checked first.

Hi Amber

This is the Low Coolant Level indicator. You may need service soon. Hopefully, you are just low, however, it could indicate other problems (minor or major).

NEVER remove the radiator cap while the coolant is HOT!

Here is info straight from your owners manual:
Low Coolant Warning Light
This light comes on
briefly when you turn
your ignition on.
If this light comes on and stays on and you hear a chime,
the vehicle should promptly be pulled off the road and
the coolant level checked.
