    Hi all, it has been awhile since I ladt posted. Curremtly, I am driving a 2005 Gen2. New problem: yellow dash ligjht next to the CRUISE lamp (yellow lamp is next to and to the right of the CRUISE lamp) and ywo the right of the headlight indicator.

    What does this yellow light mean?

    I cannot find it in the manual. TIA.

    PS Airbag light is on b/c front seats are temporarily replaced with 2007 seats (diffetent harness connectors).

    I believe that light comes on as a 'heads up" freeze warning when outside temp is 37 degrees.

    This link, sheet number 5. Just a warning that outside temp may cause frost on road, etc.

    Hi there TMR-JWAP, many thanks for your input. Indeed the warning light is a smowflake superimposef over a stick figure that sort of looks like a broken-upside-down funnel.

    PS I did not find the above described snowflake superimposef over a stick figure that sort of looks like a broken-upside-down funnel at the linked URL.

    PPS. I am attaching a better pic of the relevanr symbol. Screenshot_20241020-093623_Gallery.jpg

    It is a picture of a snowflake on top of a road, as if you were driving up the road. A solid line on each side and dashes in the center.

    Using the link, go to page 5, it's like the 12th or 13th symbol.

    The road is drawn in perspective, but apparently disappears over a hilltop before the dashed center line and the side lines all meet at the vanishing point.
