Understanding the P Light on Honda HR-V
The “P” light on your Honda HR-V typically indicates that the vehicle’s parking brake is engaged. This light is an on/off indicator, which simply tells the driver when a certain feature has been activated or turned off. In this case, the “P” light indicates the status of the parking brake system. When the parking brake is engaged, the “P” light will be illuminated, and when the parking brake is released, the light will turn off.
If you have any further questions about the dashboard lights on your Honda HR-V, feel free to reach out to a Honda dealership or service center for assistance.
