Complete Guide to Land Rover Car & Dashboard Warning Lights
Different Types of Land Rover Car Warning Lights
Land Rover dashboard warning lights are typically grouped into three colour categories: red, amber, and green.
- Red warning lights indicate a serious problem with your Land Rover. You should stop driving as soon as it is safe to do so and investigate the issue immediately.
- Amber warning lights signal that attention or action is required, such as checking fluid levels or arranging servicing.
- Green warning lights are advisory only and usually confirm that a system or feature is operating correctly. No action is required.

A Land Rover is a reliable, quality car. But all vehicles can develop a fault or need inspection or repairs from time to time.
Modern Land Rovers feature multiple monitoring tools to monitor performance and indicate a potential problem as needed. Featuring a selection of dashboard warning lights to alert you to issues, you can drive with confidence.
It’s important to get to know your Land Rover’s warning lights to make sure you know what to do if there’s a problem, and when to book a service.
What do the Warning Lights on my Land Rover mean?
Battery
When you turn on your vehicle’s ignition, the 12v battery charge light should come on to indicate that the bulb is working, and once the engine has started this will stop. However, if the light stays illuminated or it comes on suddenly while you’re driving, then there could be a fault with the battery.
Low oil pressure
If your low oil pressure indicator illuminates or begin to flash, stop driving as soon as you safely can, making sure you turn off the engine completely after you’ve stopped. Inspect your oil level and top up if required.
Triangle critical warning
Your triangle critical warning light will illuminate when there is an important message displayed on the instrument panel and should be investigated as soon as possible.
Engine temperature
If the engine’s temperature is too high, the engine temperature warning light will come on. This will be accompanied by a warning message on the instrument panel. If this happens while driving, stop the vehicle when it is safe to do so. You can then report the fault or get some advice.
