🚗🛞 WHEEL ALIGNMENT: KNOW THESE 3 ANGLES!

🔧 Toe — Controls whether tires point inward or outward. Incorrect toe can cause feathered wear.

📐 Camber — Shows the tire’s inward/outward tilt. Incorrect camber can cause inner or outer edge wear.

🎯 Caster — Controls steering-axis angle and affects stability and steering feel.

⚠️ Also watch for:
• Off-center steering wheel
• Pulling left/right
• Uneven tire wear
• Cupping or scalloping

🚗⚠️ COMMON WARNING LIGHTS & WHAT THEY CAN POINT TO

Your dashboard warning lights are your vehicle’s way of saying “something needs attention.” 🔧

Here are some common ones:

🟠 Check Engine — Engine or emissions-related faults
🛢️ Oil Pressure — Low oil pressure or lubrication-system issues
🔋 Battery — Charging system or electrical problems
🌡️ Temperature — Engine overheating or cooling-system issues
🛑 ABS — Anti-lock braking system fault
⭕ Brake Warning — Brake system or parking-brake-related issue
🔧 Steering — Power steering or electronic steering system fault

⚠️ IMPORTANT: A warning light does not always identify the exact failed component. One light can have multiple possible causes.

🔍 DIAGNOSE BEFORE REPLACING PARTS

Check the relevant fault codes, sensors, wiring, connectors, power/ground circuits, and mechanical components before replacing anything.

💡 Mechanic Tip: The warning light is the starting point of the diagnosis—not the diagnosis itself.
