Default what kind of light is this on the s2000 dash?

hey guys,

i bought an 08 s2000 on 3/31/12 w/ 26,500 miles and got my first oil change yesterday. after the oil change and about 10 miles, i noticed the light (with the exclamation mark) came on. what does this mean?????????????


as you can see in the pic, there were no problems the night of the oil change until 10-20miles later.



you can ignore all of the other lights. they dont show when i start the car. it's only the exclamation mark one that stays on.



thanks everyone

Looks like TPMS. Your tire pressure is low (or the sensor isn't configured properly).

From the picture you posted it seems like there are two lights with exclamation marks. The one on the right, is low tire pressure. The one on the left is for the electric power steering system, could indicate an issue with the power steering. See pages 45 and 48 of your car manual.

Thanks guys. The only light that stays on is the tire pressure one..all the others go away when I start the car.

I'm gonna fill it with air tonight when I go out.


Thanks all!
