I am leery on pulling all in engine fuse box.? no cash to take to a mechanic right now.Hate letting kid drive when she cant see how fast she is going.

2005 ford free star warning lights

Is this one of the 3 lights in the lowest corner of the display? These 3 lights are for the 3 following functions.
-(Top lamp). Speed limiter Light.
-(Bottom left lamp). Trans Axle warning light.
-(Bottom right lamp). Oil Pressure Warning light.
This sounds like it could be the speed limiter. Check for any switches on the dashboard and the steering column for switches with the same logo as the speed limiter light as this can flash to show it is active.
The Trans Axle warning is the systems electronics showing there is a possible issue with the transmission.
The Oil Pressure light shows there is an issue with the oil system such as low oil or low oil pressure in the engine.
You will often find the Trans axle and Oil warning lights usually don't flash.

My 2003 rendezvous ignition wont turn with the key inserted. The lights are coming on but the dashboard only lights up a little.

Check your battery connections and try jumping it sounds like faulty charging system either bad connection,battery or alternator auto zone will test alternator and battery for free. Culprit is probably bad connection at battery terminal wiggle and watch for light fluctuation on dash.Clean to shine at connection.Hope this helps.

Dashboard Lights Going, going, going

There is a dimmer for the dashboard lights on the dash. Make sure it is up. If all the other warning lights come on on the dash as well, then your ignition switch needs replaced.

Not sure what the icon on the dashboard was signalling

Semi-solved. It looks to be some sort of headlight warning. Fog lights?
I'm still investigating.
