Abstract
An indication apparatus indicates a highest priority one of a plurality of simultaneously occurring abnormal states of a vehicle. When one of a plurality of abnormal state sensors is opened, a drive motor coupled to an indication drum starts to rotate and stops when a position on the indication drum indicating above abnormal state sensor is reached. When another sensor having higher priority than the first sensor is also opened, the indication drum rotates to the position corresponding to the second higher priority sensor, but when a sensor having a lower priority is further opened the indication drum remains fixed at the position corresponding to the first sensor.
