Hidden warning light?

Marqués · 03-23-2022, 05:16 PM

I believe -I'm not sure- that this little light turned on for a second in my instrument cluster. I just realized that this "dot" exists in our E89s and apparently in E90/91/92s too.

Any thoughts on what this might be? Please ignore the other warning lights.

1) That's not a cluster from an E89, or even and E90,91,92 or 93!
2) That dot does not show up on an E89 cluster
3) That photo is of an E81/87 cluster.
4) That dot does not illuminate on an E81/7 cluster lamp test.

Therefore, it doesn't light up.

^^^Thanks for your answer! You're right....I just grabbed a random pic from the web with a visible dot.

Here is my actual cluster... and the dot is present:

Anyways, I'm happy to know that I don't have any issues.
