Automatic transmission fault indicator On a car with an automatic transmission, this warning symbol is illuminated if a fault has been detected in the transmission. Switch the ignition off and on again to check if the fault persists. Even if the fault persists, it is still possible in most cases to drive the car (see page 144). Have the automatic transmission checked by an authorized Saab dealer as soon as possible. High beam Indicator 1 Cars with automatic transmission The symbol is lit when the high beam is on.
