Warning Lights, Gauges, and Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can signal that something is wrong before it becomes serious enough to cause an expensive repair or replacement. Paying attention to the warning lights and gauges could prevent injury. Some warning lights come on briefly when the engine is started to indicate they are working. When one of the warning lights comes on and stays on while driving, or when one of the gauges shows there may be a problem, check the section that explains what to do. Waiting to do repairs can be costly and even dangerous.

Cadillac Escalade Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico- 16417396) - 2023 - CRC - 5/9/22
Instruments and Controls 109
There is an arrow near the fuel gauge pointing to the side of the vehicle the fuel door is on. When the indicator nears empty, the low fuel light comes on. There still is a little fuel left, but the vehicle should be refueled soon. The fuel gauge may: . Take a little more, or less fuel to fill up
than it indicates. For example, the gauge may have indicated the tank is half full, but it actually will take a little more, or less than half the tank's capacity to fill the tank.
. Moves a little while turning a corner, speeding up, or braking.
. Take a few seconds to stabilize after the ignition is turned on and goes back to empty when the ignition is turned off.
These are normal conditions, none of which indicate a problem with the fuel gauge.
Engine Oil Pressure Gauge
Metric
English
The engine oil pressure gauge shows the engine oil pressure in kPa (kilopascals) or psi (pounds per square inch) when the engine is running. This gauge displays on the infotainment display. If show in cluster is selected a digital value is shown on the instrument cluster in the left zone. Oil pressure can vary with engine speed, outside temperature, coolant temperature, and oil viscosity. On some models, the oil pump will vary engine oil pressure according to engine needs. Oil pressure may change quickly as the engine speed or load varies. This is normal. If the oil pressure warning light or Driver Information Center (DIC) message indicates oil pressure outside the normal operating range, check the vehicle's oil as soon as possible. See Engine Oil 0 342.
Caution
Lack of proper engine oil maintenance can damage the engine. Driving with the engine oil low can also damage the engine. The repairs would not be covered by the vehicle warranty. Check the oil level as soon as possible. Add oil if required, but if the oil level is within the operating range and the oil pressure is still low, have the vehicle serviced. Always follow the maintenance schedule for changing engine oil.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
Metric
English
The engine coolant temperature gauge measures the temperature of the vehicle's engine. This gauge displays on the infotainment display. If show in cluster is selected a digital value is shown on the instrument cluster in the left zone. While driving under normal operating conditions, if the needle moves into the red area, the engine is too hot. Pull off the road, stop the vehicle, and turn off the engine as soon as possible.
Transmission Temperature Gauge
Metric
English
The transmission temperature gauge shows the transmission fluid temperature. If the gauge is reading in the red area and/or a message appears in the Driver Information Center (DIC), the vehicle must be stopped and the cause checked. One possible cause is a low fluid level in the transmission. This gauge displays on the infotainment display. If show in cluster is selected a digital value is shown on the instrument cluster in the left zone.
Caution
Do not drive the vehicle while the transmission fluid is overheating, or the transmission can be damaged. This could lead to costly repairs that would not be covered by the warranty.
Voltmeter Gauge
When the ignition is on, the voltmeter gauge indicates the battery voltage. This gauge displays on the infotainment display. If show in cluster is selected a digital value is shown on the instrument cluster in the left zone. When the engine is running, this gauge shows the condition of the charging system. The gauge can transition from a higher to lower or a lower to higher reading. This is normal. If the vehicle is operating outside the normal operating range, the charging
system light comes on. See Charging System Light 0 114. The voltmeter gauge may also read lower when in fuel economy mode. This is normal. Readings outside the normal operating range can also occur when a large number of electrical accessories are operating in the vehicle and the engine is left idling for an extended period. This condition is normal since the charging system is not able to provide full power at engine idle. As engine speeds are increased, this condition should correct itself as higher engine speeds allow the charging system to create maximum power. The vehicle can only be driven for a short time with the readings outside the normal operating range. If the vehicle must be driven, turn off all accessories, such as the radio and air conditioner. Readings outside the normal operating range indicate a possible problem in the electrical system. Have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible.
