All symbols pages have now been re-ordered by color

Symbols Pages

We set out to re-order our remaining two pages, Volkswagen and Skoda, only to open them and discover they were re-ordered and our list had not been updated. So as of now, all our symbols pages have been reset, 49 of 49.

We can now focus on the final 2024, 2025 updates of our key fob and symbols pages. Audi (in the works) and Mini are in need of a symbols update while Rivian and Skoda need their fob pages update. Maserati and Tesla are in need of both.

We have attempted a fob update on Rivian, but their vehicle back-up entry options remain a mystery.

Ordering the page by color provides a cleaner, simpler option for drivers searching for information on a new symbol. We should have made these changes long ago.

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 abbreviation or 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.

Smart Keys or Intelligent Keys, or Access Keys — or whatever the manufacturer of your chooses to call them — that let you into your car and start it with just a touch use up their internal batteries at alarming rates, catching busy drivers unawares — even though the car had tried to warn you.

Our goal is to help you feel safe — and keep you moving or get you moving if at all possible — rather than leave you fretting whenever your key fob stops working. The instructions for getting into and starting most keyless start cars can be found on our pages — without roadside assistance.

Our VW and Skoda symbols pages can be seen here and here, respectively.

Technology is always changing and what is current and accurate today may be literally out-of-date and inaccurate tomorrow. And when it comes to the current state of flux in the auto industry, nothing is more true.
