G'day All
What is the function of the exhaust warning light?
A truck lost a load of wood infront of us and something ripped the wiring of the exhaust.
I see 2 options get new connector or tape over the light
Cheers All

I'm pretty sure it's just a CAT temperature warning light. If it is the sensor after the CAT.

It's there for 2 reasons, cause the CAT's stop working effeciently at very high temperatures and so that you don't park a car with a hot CAT in long grass and burn your car to the ground. Trust me, I've had to put a few of these fires out in rallies. ;)
