Exclamation The headlight warning light is on, but the switch is off

Today I noticed that when the engine is running but the car is parked, the headlight warning light is on, but the switch is off. However, the front and rear lights don't come on.
I don't think this was the case before...
What do you think?

The problem has been solved. It turned out that the brake light bulb P21/5W was burned out, and that's how the Crossfire was signaling the fault. I didn't know this car was so intelligent...
Another example from a few days ago - the low windshield washer fluid warning light came on in the dashboard. I was pleasantly surprised that something like that was even signaled.
I've never encountered such "intelligence" in cars before.

The bulb out warning light comes on when a variety of bulbs do not light. It is not just the Headlights and taillights. Do you have an owner manual? If not, you can download it here.

I agree, download the owners manual and read it. You might have quite a few questions that come up that will be answered in the owners manual. Have FUN!
