Warning light not in owners manual, what does it mean?

Post by hiker147 »

I have been member for only a short time but this forum is great, thanks for all the help! 2.4L 2009 Vibe. I was driving home tonight and a warning light in the tachometer "cluster" came on. Its at about the 4:00 o'clock position is a circle like a gauge with an arrow pointing in a 11:00 o'clock. To my surprise no where to be found in owners manual. Stopped for gas restarted car and it was gone.Is this so obvious that I am an idiot and don't get it, or something more important?Anybody know what this means?ThanksThanks for the input, I am an idiot the warning or indicator light is for the cruise control being on. As cruise control and New Jersey is an oxymoron I had not turned on the cruise control since the day I bought the car. Also the owners manual has not been updated to show this indicator light for the 2009 models.

the manual shows the cruise control indicator as being the word "CRUISE" but it's not. If you look at the cruise control knob, you will see the same symbol there. I guess it's like having the speedometer nailed to a fixed position
