Need help to diagnose warning light
I dont have the owners manual, so I need help to confirm what this warning light means.
The car is a 1990 S4 Auto. I got aftermarket wheels so the RDK warning flashes on the LCD display after starting. I know how to deal with that so thats no big deal.
But today I got a red warning light on the top right side of the instrument cluster. The light it just left of the green park/driving light. The red light looks just like the symbol in the LCD RDK warning with 4-wheels and lines betweeen them. When I remove the LCD RDK warning with the handle this light still stays on.
Is this just another RDK warning, or is it something else?
I hope its just a RDK warning, but I find it strange that it has not been activated earlier.

Come on.... 30+ views and none with a clue?
The sun is shining and the easter is just around the corner, and here I'm stuck because don't dare to drive my shark beacuse of this silly little warning lamp.
Ok, it looks something like this sketchup:
and it is placed on the top right side of the instrument cluster, but left of the lights indicator.

I had the same warning symbol when i went to aftermarket wheels, it is the rdk warning. Just unplug the unit under the dash. RHS above the accelerator pedal on uk cars.

Yes its the RDK permamanent warning (the LCD will repeat every 15 minutes with the wheel location) - this one stays and I believe it is also used if the PSD system shuts down due to a fault (but you'd get a separate LCD warning for that too).
