I have a 08 1.8 diesel Titanium.

There is a permanent red light on the dash board between the temp and fuel gauge.

Should this be on whilst driving ?

Not noticed thid before - am I being paranoid ?

Thanks for any reply.

theirs a problem with the immobiliser or ECU mate take it to your dealer for a diagnostic check on the computer

Thanks for your reply.

I rang the Ford main dealer today and they told me to top up the washer fluid !!!

Needless to say this has not solved the problem.

Will take it to the dealer tomorrow for a check as you suggested and see what the say.

Should this happen on a three year ol car with only 22K on the clock ?

I will report back on the outcome.

happend my mates 2011 fiesta on a trip home from the garage only his wouldnt start and red light was flashing,
turned out to be a faulty ignition coil sensor.
brother's transit connect, ECU went at 9,000km so anything is possible not always due to wear tnd tare.
i wouldnt worry too much as its not mechanical could even be dirt on a sensor.
