High temperature indicator

Thinking of the instruments on my car dashboard, I wonder if PH might indeed by "pression d'huile" and TE "température élevée", which must surely be standard indications of engine status. My car, at least shows oil pressure, oil temp., and water temp.

But it could indeed be many things!

Or "température excessive".

Oil and water temperatures are shown by gauges on my car, but a red "high temperature" warning light comes on if one (or other? I don't know which) exceeds a certain temperature.

agree Tony M : Yes, from the look of the beast, and the FR use of the word 'indicateur', I suspect this is in fact as you say just a warning light

E.T indicator

elapsed time indicator
Peer comment(s):

neutral Tony M : Seems unlikely, given that the first item on the list is indeed already a 'compteur horaire'

high voltage indicator

A possibility i.e. tension elevée?

Or, in view of my googling for another of your questions, this might well and is probably more likely to be "température élevée"
Peer comment(s):

neutral Tony M : I think your second suggestion of 'temperature' is more likely to be correct than 'high voltage' // What I usually do is post a second answer (you get told off!), and then hide the original; unofficial, but it works!

Yes so do I - not sure how I change it other than to add a note!
