Default What that dash light means (apparently)

I had a text this morning: “Battery is flat, car won’t start.”

How did you know, I asked: “The little picture of a battery was lit up.”

Someone had forgotten their kill switch. It was cranking but no spark or fuel.

Had a CEO that seized an engine....he had seen a red light on the dash but was waiting for it to get brighter before doing anything.

A mate’s ex-girlfriend told him there was a “little watering can” lit on the dash, so she checked and topped up the screenwash with her little watering can.

Like your CEO, the motor still seized...
