Black and white and gray scale indicators gets its page

Gray scale indicators

Some time ago, we made a table to account for the growing number of black and white and gray scale indicators. However, we neglected to create a page for them.

That oversight has now been corrected.

Symbols seen in black and white and gray scale are principally the result of advanced driver assist systems that are often left on stand by awaiting actual use. An easy example is the use of brake hold systems. When ready for use, the symbol is in black and white. When set, the symbol turns green, as can be seen to the right.

We don’t know how many drivers will search by color alone, and we don’t actually recommend it. But we owe it to them to provide every search option possible.

The best search option remains to choose the manufacturer of your vehicle here.

Cars are changing, and among those changes is the growing number of symbols and indicators that will invariably show up on your dashboard or instrument panel. Every year, new features are added to vehicles, each of which is accompanied by a new symbol or symbols and likely a new acronym.

At DashboardSymbols.com, our aim is to help you understand what is happening to your vehicle at the first sign of trouble – a new warning light illuminated on your instrument panel. Its all here on this website. Our first intention is to bring the latest technologies down to earth and understandable for everyday drivers.
