I was driving home today when I noticed a light come on my panel that I�ve never seen before, and I have no idea what it might be.
The light is right under my temp gauge. It�s a picture of a car with three short lines on each end of the car. No other lights come on my panel, but I know what they are. Right beside the light that came on is the seat belt light. Next set of lights are under my fuel gauge, which are battery and water. Then under my rpm gauge is the check engine light.
The car drives fine, but that trouble light does have me paranoid. I drive an hour (one way) to work, and the last thing I need is to break down in the middle of nowhere.

I believe what you are seeing is the light bulb warning light.This means that you probably have a bulb out at one end of the car.Turn on your lights and check for one being out, dont forget to have someone hold down the brake pedal to check the brake lights as well
