Kidding. I don't really care. I'm just one bourbon in and feeling snarky.

If you do decide to take it in and error isn't showing anymore, the service person may ask you to describe the problem. Now that would make an interesting work order.

I thought it was the prototype "Time to Fuck" dashboard that Porsche was toying with in the late 70's (you know, to go with those nifty digital watches that were all the rage).

More like the traction control is off warning light to me, which is why the person on the left is pushing the person on the right up the hill.....

Way back when I worked at my dad’s mom and pop TV sales and service
store, we witnessed a wide variety of customers. When writing up an item
for repair, we’d try to get a useful description of the problem. Some customers provided helpful info, but others simply had no imagination. Their answer: “It doesn’t work.”

I learned a lot during my 23 years in that business, but I don’t miss it. I count
it as a good stepping stone to my 21 year electronics technician job in ITS at our local university.

Reminds me of an old story:
Freshman arrives for the first day at Harvard (back when it was respected). Can’t find the library so approaches an upperclassman, and asks, “Where’s the library at?”
The upper classman bristles and says, “Young man, you are at Harvard now. We use proper English here, and you’ve ended your question with a preposition. Please rephrase it properly!”
To which the freshman, after a moment of thought, says, “Where’s the library at, asshole?”

Maybe you are overthinking it. It may just be a digital dipstick to indicate the car is a quart low.

My how times have changed. This is a list of reasons to be admitted to an asylum. I'd be admitted several times over. What's your score?
