Why does my Saab 9-5 Dashboard Light Up at night?
I recently had my 9-5 dashboard light up like a Xmas tree, with the Triangle of Death, INFO DISPLAY, BRAKE, TCS OFF and god knows what else making my face brighter when I drove at night. With winter set strongly, roads slippery and icy, all that kept me from fiery death were my snow tires.

Hence you’ll see all of the warning lights associated with that issue.
