Green light?
Last night i looked down at my dash board as i was in the car and suddenly i saw this green light, that had never been on before?
its juts a bulb facing downwards, and with little lines coming off it, now i may sound silly in asking, but ive never seen it on before, is it just to tell me that my lights are on?even when i dont got them switched on, but of course they still on. just curious coz teh manual doesnt say anything about it! cheers for anyhelp matt |

That sounds like the sidelight/daytime-running light indicator to me. A picture of a light bulb with lines coming off it in a sort of semicircular radial pattern. This is normal and should be on all the time.

I'd agree with EBDL on that. I also have a yellow one at the top of the dash which stays on until I use the brakes ?

Yes, the orange/yellow bulb with a cross through it tests the brake-light circuit. It turns off the first time you touch the brakes, unless one of the bulbs has blown, in which case it stays on.
