Engine Lights

On a car dashboard an area exists that turns on malfunctioning stuff affecting your car. These lights can tell you if your car is overheating, oil is low, and even that you need to inflate your tires. Sometimes these engine lights go on even though there is nothing wrong because of a fuse or a short in your electrical system. These lights drive me to distraction and I wonder if my car is going to blow up if one of these lights go on. Are you affected by these warning lights?
