What make and model of vehicle are you talking about? Anyhow the check gages means that any one of your vehicles systems has low fluid, isn't working or you are almost out of fuel. With the vehicle running look at all your gages, and if one seems high or extremely low then there's your problem, correct the problem and cycle the ignition and the light should go out. If not take it to your local dealership or repair garage for testing.

R-Reg Corsa 1.2 starts cold, but won't when warm, Why is this?

it means that tyhe sensor in the gas tank has reached the reading of ""low on gas"" and it is time to go to the gas station and re-fuel your ride..............you probably can drive about 25 or 32 miles longer on this alert signal on the dashboard of your car but I do suggest that you do not allow the car to run out of gas...this is traumatic to the car and to other drivers....as the fuel system is keyed to run on pressure and the loss can cause lots of problems.....BUT f you ever do run out of gas as soon as you can turn the car off ..go get at least 2 gallons of gas fore the car and put that in the tank and then turn the key on to activate the electrics--- do not hit he start position for about two and one-half minutes and this gives the fuel system time to re-pressure and at that time you can start your engine__________good luck
