So i had this white light come on earlier today. I haven’t been able to find any diagrams or videos or anything like this in my owners manual. Closest thing i could find was that its an indicator light for the allison trans. I know these white lights are supposed to come on before starting the truck but this individual white light came on after about 4 hrs of driving through snow. Anyone have an idea of what it might be? I cant get an obd2 scanner until Monday so any feedback will be appreciated
This is the light thats on when running

I looked around. Those upper quadrants are warning telltales for optional equipment. I went through a couple of online owners manuals and found no warning lights that are white in colour. I suspect those spots are actually blank with no option and something is shorting out to cause the cluster to turn them on. I can't tell from your picture if anything is there, it should be a little picture of something. Are these just a solid white square?

Yea they’re just a solid white light with no text or symbols

I would say a cluster issue, or an input wire for an option that isn't there might be shorting due to the snow/moisture.

Its very possible. It hasn’t happened since that day so im sure it was just bugging out for whatever reason. Thanks for your inputHeavyd Thanks this.
