What each green and blue lamp on the Peugeot 2008 II (2023-2025) means, from Stop & Start to main beam, and what, if anything, you need to do about it.
Green and blue lamps on your dashboard are indicator lamps. Rather than warning you of a fault, they show you the operating status of a system, such as your lights, the wipers or a driving aid. Some of them come on steadily and some flash, and the way a lamp lights up tells you what the system is doing.
This guide covers the Peugeot 2008 II and is based on handbook edition ed01-23, which applies to vehicles produced from 03/07/2023. Some of these lamps depend on the version or equipment of your car, so you may not see every one of them.
