Chrysler Dashboard Symbols Update
Chrysler Dashboard Symbols UpdateDespite the company selling only two models, the 2024 Chrysler dashboard symbols update still manages to add seven new symbols to the page.
Most are the result of adding new colors to existing symbols. As a for instance, there are now green and white Lane Departure Indicators. They add to what a driver needs to know about the system, In green, the system is on and ready and both lanes are detected. In white, lane lines are not detected.
Also added were several for Adaptive Cruise Control (right). As with above, the additions involve new colors: green means the system is operating; green with an added vehicle says the system is running and has detected a vehicle ahead; and white says the system is on, but no speed has been chosen.
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.
The Chrysler symbols page, now with nearly 60 of them, is here.

Alfa Romeo dashboard symbols
E-Boost is a belt-driven 48V hybrid system. This system helps in stop-and-go (see this link) situations and translates to improvements for the official city fuel economy. Seen in white, the E-Boost system is unavailable. Seen in gray it is available and in green, it is engaged.
We have now added a Rivian symbols page covering the R1T pick up and the R1S SUV models. We had to modify system fault, auto braking, and hood and tailgate ajar indicators to look like the company’s models. However, while the rest of the warning lights and indicators are old standards, there is a new set that stand out.
We had to add a whole new set of charge indicators (left) to our 
New Dashboard Symbols
(GM) models!
They’re difficult to read here, but the styles are clear, which is the point. The contents of the Prologue and ZDX manuals follow the GM style of presentation to the letter right on through the entire manual! Every other Honda or Acura manual for 15 years+ has a TOC and structure just like the Pilot.
And the result is the addition of at least a dozen new (at least to Honda!) symbols and telltales that fall right out of the GM playbook.
But beyond this, many of the driver support system indicators, like lane keeping and pedestrian avoidance are in the GM style.
Buick Dashboard Symbols
That new model, the Envista, however, does introduce a new door handle with a new way to hide the key hole (right). You can find out how to get inside if the battery in the key fob dies here at 
Fisker Symbols
Fisker Customers Get the Pages They Need
A good 10 years ago, we put up a dead key fob page for Fisker Karma buyers. The Karma not so famously featured a key hole on the passenger door!
The car and the company went nowhere, so we took the page down a few years later.
Well, the company resurrected itself and released the Ocean, a full electric SUV. Problems with the car and problems with sales led to a shocking sell-off of the cars
at bargain basement prices and a company close to dissolution. From here it sure looks like its customers are soon to be abandoned, if they haven’t already been.
Well, we decided to give them at least a little help, returning the dead fob page while adding the back up process to the Ocean, and a symbols page.
Since the Karma is an electric like the Chevrolet Volt is an electric — that is with a gas engine to charge the battery on long trips — the page includes warning lights like a check engine light, an oil pressure light and engine overheat light. They don’t seem to fit, but actually do.
