Its either alerting you that your low on engine coolant, OR
Windshield washer fluid is low. If the light is flashing over bumps or when you turn, its probably the washer fluid. I recommend you check all fluid levels.

Dash lights intramant panil out

Intermittent faults rob years from our lives!!! I've rather a root canal to intermittent fault isolation!! Chapter 11 of Murphy's law reminds us simply checking various spots will cause the fault to disappear until you really need to go somewhere.

Could be a loose or dirty connection so check the fuse box, even if the fuse look good remove clean it and replace. Hopefully you can easily get to the back w/o removing the entire panel. Change the bulb.

Finally is it is a current year model let the dealer do it, should be covered(or not disallowed).

I have a service symbol that appears on my dash which looks like a rectangle filled half way with water and a spout on the top what does it mean?

hi, this is the warning for low coolant level it may need topping up so check this before your car over heats, over heating can cause the head gasket to go witch would cost thousands to get repaired.

Fuse location

The fuse is located near, but not within the main fuse box. (took me 5 years to figure that out...haha) The main fuse box is the one that is shaped like an upright rectangle, containing most of the fuses for the car, and concealed by a cover. Don't bother with the main fuse box...

Look immediately above the main fuse box, and you will see a uniquely shaped fuse holder, containing, you guessed it, the cigarette lighter fuse.
The fuse holder should say "20 Cigar" on the cover. The cover actually swings open from the bottom. Just grab it gently between two fingers and give it a tug, it'll pop right open giving you access to the fuse.
