Hyundai Elantra While not much larger than the accent, the Elantra offers similar room, but a sportier look and feel, as well as more power.

Default Dash warning light not listed

Hi, I have a 2008 Elantra and on the right side of the dash I have a dummy light that looks like a horseshoe with an exclamation point in the center. There is no such light listed in the owners manual. Does anyone know what this is for? Everything is working just fine with the car.

It the tire pressure monitoring system light. The feature is discussed on page 4-50, but you are right that the symbol itself was left out of the manual.

Thanks a lot! I did a walk around with that in mind because all other problems were listed with the lights. None of the tires looked low but I'll have to top them all off, may be a little bit sensitive. Thanks again, Jeff

Yep, Tire Pressure Monitoring System. One or more of the tires has low pressure.

SOMETIMES one can tell by looks BUT get a tire gage out and KNOW what the pressure is.
Winter is the main season for keeping an eye on tire pressure.
If anything get below 25 lbs have the tire inspected, rim cleaned (sanded), and remounted in insure it keeps air.
Good luck and post back on your findings.
Thanks

Good luck!
