Several dashboard lights are on after a crash!!
Is it normal for more than one dash warning light to illuminate after a collision? Does this imply that the accident impacted numerous systems?
It might have damaged the wires or the sensors. Continued driving with warning lights on can possibly do more damage to the vehicle than the accident itself. So better to show to the mechanic expert nearby.
That is definitely an electrical problem and it has to be addressed as soon as possible to prevent further damage to other electrical components.
Its impossible for us to predict what might be damaged after crash, probably some electronics got fried or tangled after a crash.
If more than one dash warning light is on, it just means that you have problems in more than one system. Especially after a collision, multiple lights may be on if multiple systems were affected by the crash like if the airbags were deployed during the crash, they will need to be reset, otherwise the dash light will show an error with the airbag system. However, if all of your lights turn on suddenly, it could indicate an issue with your alternator. Anyway, it's best to have a qualified collision repair technician analyze your vehicle. The sooner you have it taken care of, the less likely there is to be extensive damage and the resultant cost.
Yes, it's a common scenario after an accident or collision. Many of the sensors and microcontrollers would become damaged due to the impact and would light up the display. It is best to have a thorough investigation by a certified mechanic to clear these issues.
We cannot assume what could have gone wrong especially after a collision. So better to consult with local body shop.
