Unknown dash symbol
Unknown dash symbol
I had this happen about six months ago and again today. Had a symbol on my dash come up for a short time that I don't recognize. It's a diamond with an"H" in it. Any help? See attached:
Re: Unknown dash symbol
The only H symbol in my book refers to the Hill Start. If you don't get the warning triangle at the same time it's not a safely warning. Does it only show with only one of your info displays or with everything ?
Sorry, didn't look carefully enough at you pic, thought you had an LC. The other 2 are correct, its oil level.

Re: Unknown dash symbol
You see it as a 'H' but I think you will find its an '!' which is an warning light to check your oil level.

Re: Unknown dash symbol
What year is the bike, looks the same as my 2012 RT.
In the Rider's Manual it suggests that the <!> Symbol should appear with "OIL" if the oil level is too low.
Check the oil level at the sight glass, if it's OK, the oil sensor might be defective.
Does the word "OIL" appear with a "Tick" next too it when the engine is up to temperature, running & in neutral.

Re: Unknown dash symbol
Yes it is definitely to check your oil level. Had this on my '05 RT last month topped the oil up and warning symbol gone.
Re: Unknown dash symbol
Well I was fixated on that being an “H”. Now that it was pointed out it was an exclamation symbol, I see it now. My bike is a 2009. I did check and add a small amount of oil. Problem solved. Thanks for everyone’s help!

Re: Unknown dash symbol
How much oil did you add, was the oil level within the sight glass, prior to topping up.macinsac wrote:I did check and add a small amount of oil.
