Also, does anyone have an image that explains what each warning light means on 92 LS400 cluster?

Thanks a lot guys!

I thought that was a radiator fluid warning light?

It looks like a little carousel.

Yes exactly what they said....carousel/antifreeze. I need help on a warning light too! It looks like a car from top view with 6 lines what seems to be coming out the back left and right part of the car.... I thought it might be low rear tire pressure or rear lights not working. But all is well....ANY HELP with that please????

I believe that is the tail light out indicator. I don't know what year your car is, but if it is a first gen, check your tail light bulbs very carefully. There are actually about 50 bulbs back there; it is very easy to take a quick look and not notice that one or two bulbs are burned out.

That light IS your rear light warning. Mine was coming on for my third brake light. One light wasn't working but after a couple days it somehow fixed itself so I am thinking there is a loose wire somewhere. If all your bulbs are good you might have a loose ground wire.
