Hey Guys,

I just picked up an Audi A4 2003 and in need of some help, ANYONE know whata Green light indicator means??...I looked it up in my manual and it is referred to as the Parking Lights?. the indicator is always on and I reallllllllly dont want to take it in becasue of the arm and the leg they will charge to tell me what the problem is... can anyone help me???? I know its not a warning but the light really begs me...

thanks

 

if the indicator light is on solid this means a direction light is out ( indicator ) so say if one front indicator light is out them the green light in the dash stays on solid and dosnt flash, basicly you have a flasher bulb blown

 

no if your flasher is out it will tell you your flasher is out not just put up a indicator light my flasher was out the other day and i replaced it. it told me it was the flasher i didnt get a green light. and my blinkers were going alot faster than normal with the blown bulb in it. do you live in canada where you have daytime runing lights maybe that is the cause i dont know but it will tell you if its broken though not just some green light

 

Thanks for the reply, its not really the indicator (flasher) but its a Green Light on the dash and when I referred to the manual it called it a (parking light)

 

Brotzvang,

YesI live in Canada, the dealer did say it MIGHT be the day time lights but I wasnt sure.... its just that its on all the time u know.... that might actually be it then you think?

 

Yes, green indicator light located approximately top, center of the gauge cluster above the tachometer and spedometer means your Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) are on. Completely normal for Canadian vehicles.

 

Thanks so much now my mind is at ease.... I was trying EVERything in my power to see how I can turn it off... now that I know its normal I feel much better... wasnt sure if there was a light burnt out or hand something worng... thanks again

 

The US models have that as well, but the green light only turns on when you turn the lights on.

 

Veloracer,

Really???. mine is on all the time... it just doesnt look right to me... there has to be reason for that... mmmmmmmmmmm

 

Yes, U.S.A. vehicles do not have "Daytime Running Lights," (DRLs) meaning when we turn our cars on, we have zero headlights / parking lights on until we turn the headlight switch to the "On" position.

Canadian vehicles require DRLs by law, meaning your headlights are always on (i believe its the headlights), hence the grean parking light indicator will always be illuminated because your headlights are always on.
[ul][*]Completely normal for this light to be illuminated on Canadian models at all times.
[/ul][ul][*]Will not be illuminated on U.S.A. models until the headlight switch is turned to the "On" position.[/ul]Your car is fine. Enjoy it!
