Land Rover Dash Warning Lights

In this article we will cover off the dash warning lights you may see appear on your Land Rover instrument cluster. We’ll cover off the amber and red warning symbols rather than all of them to help you find the relevant information quicker.

To find out more about all the generic warning symbols that might pop up, check out this article: Common Dash Warning Lights.

Exhaust DEF – Red Symbol

If this symbol is illuminated in red then it means that your the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) level is too low. Land Rover models will not run if the DEF reservoir is empty. Please note this light may also illuminate if the incorrect DEF has been used.

Exhaust DEF – Amber Symbol

When this symbol is illuminated in amber it means that the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) level is getting low or incorrect fluid has been used. The instrument panel will also display a warning message. Follow the on-screen messages, if safe to do so.

Exhaust Filter

This warning light will illuminate when the exhaust filter is full or there is a fault with the filter system. There may be an accompanying message on the display. If this light does come on then stop as soon as you can and contact your breakdown recovery provider.

Hill Descent Control (HDC)

Land Rovers are renowned for their off-roading capabilities and the Hill Descent functionality is what contributes to its super abilities. The HDC lamp illuminates when the system is selected and it is controlling a steep descent. If the lamp is flashing, HDC has been selected, but the operating conditions are not being met or HDC fade-out is occurring.

Follow Mode

This symbol will illuminate when the adaptive cruise control system is in follow mode.

Lane Departure Warning

The green lane departure warning lamp will illuminate when the feature is enabled and the system is tracking the lanes. If you change lane without indicating, or stray from your lane inadvertently, the symbol will flash red and the steering wheel will vibrate.

Auto High Beam Assist (AHBA)

This symbol lights up when the AHBA feature is active. This will automatically dip your lights to avoid dazzling oncoming traffic.​  

Auto Start/Stop

This symbol is to let you know that the Start/Stop feature of your car is active and your Land Rover has switched off – it will restart once you press the accelerator or let off the brake pedal

Forward Alert

The forward symbol will illuminate when the system is active. If a vehicle or object is detected in the user defined sensitivity area, a warning tone will sound.

If your Land Rover instrument cluster is throwing error codes and random warning signs then the issue may be with the cluster itself.
