markjodrell Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Does anyone know which of the dash warning lights should show when the ignition is turned on,( the right vhand side ones) which show before the engine is actually started Mine show abs , an orange oil light, red ignition. Im sure it used to show a red oil light as well as the orange one. All go off once started. Any ideas whats what ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjodrell Posted January 30, 2007 Author Share Posted January 30, 2007 should both the orange and the red light show before the engine is started, and whats the difference between the two ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraJames Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Ok I get Then after Then they all go out. I could be wrong but I think one is oil level, and one is oil temp or pressure, but dont quote me on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickTT Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 J-spec do not have the trac light or diff warning light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjodrell Posted January 31, 2007 Author Share Posted January 31, 2007 thanks for that, I may have some bulbs gone , I was getting oil red and yellow but now only yellow, never had ths diff light on. Just hope they have not been disable in a previous life for some devious reason. Somebody did tell me that the light panel module can be a bit troublesome with dry solder connections or something All go off when started .

James, is your a UK spec car as the display lights could vary from the J spec, just a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 ... never had the diff light on. As mentioned, only for UK specs, mate. I'm planning on replacing all those bulbs with SMT led's soon anyway, as like you I think one or two have blown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 You'll have to remove the top section of the dash, unplug the units, unscrew the units from the panel,and take a couple of screws out the back of the units and pop the back off to get to the bulbs. Easy enough, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifty Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 more pain -just noticed all my rhs lights have stopped working, I guess this is a poor connection? Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Probably. Unlikely for all the bulbs to go at once, though not impossible If you take it out, just put 12v across the bulbs to check if they're dead or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
