warning light

I would say warning light or signal light, depending on whether you need to stress the warning function or just the fact that it gives information.
Note from asker:
Even if it has red and white it would still be a signal light or signal lights?
Peer comment(s):

agree BrigitteHilgner : "Signal light" was my spontaneous idea, but "warning light" is probably better.

stack light

If there are two or more lights of different colors (typical for an "Ampel") then this arrangement is called a "stack light" or "tower light."
