Light on dashboard-non maxima question
My uncle has a light on his dashboard next to the abs light. Its a yellow circle with 3 dots on both sides of it. I do not know what it is. I know I can look it up on the manual but if anyone knows what it means let me know. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

No, not the flux capacitor. Its most likely the magnesium sulfate distributor.

^^Probably means look it up in the owner's manual. You know more about your uncle's car than anybody here.

Maybe your johnson plenum threw a rod. It's the long, girthy thing running on top of the intake manifold.

To fix this problem, your uncle will need to send 1.21 gigawatts through the motor. That should fix the problem with the time circuit.
