Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) Indicator

Continuously Variable Transmission

This is a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) Indicator symbol. In a vehicle equipped with a CVT, the indicator comes on only for a few seconds when the ignition is turned on. An actual problem with the CVT will ultimately trigger the Malfunction Indicator (see the link for more), which will tell you nothing useful and require a call to your dealer or authorized service center for service.

  • If not, you can return to our main Text Symbols page and scan again!
