The topic does not specify the model, but here we refer to the 2013 Citroen C5 and the warning lights on its instrument cluster. It is not much different from other vehicles; it features warning lights such as the expired Service light, engine fault light, and many others.

In our tutorial video, the engine fault light appears, followed by specific identification codes explained in the user manual, which help understand the ongoing issue, typically related to a fault causing inefficiency in the engine. Among the many possible anomalies are oxidised spark plugs, a clogged fuel filter, a burnt fuel pump, and so on.
