Power Steering Warning Light

This light comes on briefly when the ignition is turned to ON/RUN as a check to show it is working.

If it does not come on have the vehicle serviced by your dealer.

If this light stays on, or comes on while driving, the system may not be working. If this happens, see your dealer for service.

The All-Wheel-Drive (AWD) light and the Power Steering Warning Light are essential indicators on the Chevrolet, providing valuable information about the vehicle's systems.

AWD light typically illuminates when the vehicle is equipped with an AWD system and engages the all-wheel-drive mode. This light may come on when there is a malfunction or issue with the AWD system, such as a sensor failure or a problem with the drivetrain. When the AWD light is on, it is crucial to have the vehicle inspected by a qualified technician to diagnose and address the underlying issue.

Power Steering Warning Light, on the other hand, alerts the driver to potential problems with the power steering system. This light may indicate low power steering fluid levels, a malfunctioning power steering pump, or issues with the steering rack. A loss of power steering assist can make steering more difficult, especially at lower speeds or when parking. If the Power Steering Warning Light illuminates, it is essential to check the power steering fluid level and have the system inspected to prevent further damage or safety concerns.

In both cases, it is crucial not to ignore these warning lights, as they can indicate serious issues that may affect the vehicle's performance, safety, and drivability. Prompt attention and diagnosis by a certified mechanic can help address the problems and ensure the 2015 Chevrolet Captiva operates smoothly and safely on the road.
