Modern vehicles are more reliable and safer than ever, and each comes equipped with an array of warning lights to alert the driver to potential mechanical or safety issues. The specific design of those lights will depend on your car’s year, make, and model, but most cars have a similar range of potential warnings.
To familiarize yourself with these warnings, turn your car on without starting the engine. If your car has a traditional key, you can do this by turning the key in the ignition one click, stopping before the engine turns over. If you have a push-button-start vehicle, you can turn the car on without the engine by pressing the ignition button without your foot on the brake. Either way you do it, all of your vehicle’s dashboard lights will be illuminated in this pre-ignition setting. Follow along as we explain what each lighted symbol means.

It's located at the bottom of the tank and is rigged to a chain that is connected by a rod to the toilet handle. Usually when the toilet handle is pushed down, it pulls on the chain that lifts the flap that allows the water to enter the toilet bowl.
