Help! Lightbulb looking check light

A lightbulb looking check light came on today where the climate is. What does that mean?

It means you have a bulb failure somewhere on the car - e.g. brake lights, headlights, turn signals etc.

Take a look around the car and see if you can spot which light is out and get it replaced.

It's yellow. Where the climate is. I checked all the lights. Nothing seems to be out. Hmmm. And the little triangle caution light stays on for awhile. Then goes away.

are you sure? you should check your park lights ("small-lights") again. sometimes they are not obvious when out when you have your low-beams on.

Did you do any light modifications??? And when you press the check button does the light bulb show?

Kenny's a 335i with bi-xenon, there is no "park lights".

Kenny, I don't find a lightbulb check lights from the dash of my 06 e90. Perhaps you can show a pic of the alarm?
