The instrument panel have 3 red lights in the Y25MKii... which should go off after the engine starts.
However, nothing is said about what will happen, or what the meaning, if they stay on.

Water intake light - if on after the engine start should have any problem with the water to cool down the engine ?

Oil light - if on after engine start should have low level of oil?

Battery light - if on after engine start means the battery is low? Problem with the alternator? OR just mean it's charging and then will go off after the battery is full?

I tried to check this in the manual but no detailled info

Engine Lights

With the key switch ON.........
(when engine is stopped)
Oil pressure - ON
Battery Charge Lamp - ON
Water Temperature - OFF
Warning buzzer - Sound

When engine is running.........
Oil Pressure - OFF
Battery Charge lamp - OFF
Water Temperature - OFF
Warning Buzzer - No Sound

If the lights go on with the engine running -YOU HAVE A PROBLEM.
Oil Pressure - turn off engine immediatly
Water temp - turn of engine immediatly
charging -- battery will go dead ---
If you see electrical SMOKE disconnect battery immediately- you have an electrical fire.

my warning buzzer has never worked- You can also install automotive guages to monitor actual engine performance.
