GaryPL Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I certainly wouldn't drive long distance with the EML on. And it is also illegal to drive on the motorway knowing you could break down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrico777 Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 Light just came off suddenly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbell Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Try keeping your air con off. I don't think the eml should come on for an air con fault, but it's the best guess ive got at the moment. You should probably get it checked before driving long distance even if the light stays away with air con off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pullock Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 After a quick google of the fault code It states these are the most likely problems but take this as a very rough guide, could be something entirely different but as your cluster takes a while to become active, to me it would suggest a wiring issue but my knowledge is only theoretical from internet sources such as here. The ambient air temperature sensor has malfunctioned The wiring has shorted or broken There is corrosion in the electric circuitry or connector A break or short in the ambient air temperature harness Debris that is covering the sensor Best bet it to get a garage to have a look at it before you take it on any long drives.

Yeah its something with wiring deffinety bought radio yestrday pioneer touchscreen installed it worked fine when pushed inside dashboard tried if it works it did not turn on went Halfords apparently one cable does not have power there are two yellow and red and one of them has no power installed my ford radio works fine but there might be something with the electric as I play music from iPhone to aux cable does not work perfectly once plugged the charging start working nicely its very strange lights is off now but the cluster takes time to work ! Will make an appoitment at Ford deffo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1tch Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Wouldn't the ambient air temp sensor be in either the front bumper or wing mirror? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tells you what the outside air temp is, don't think its linked to the engine mapping though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryPL Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 All of the electrical problems (in this thread and others) point to something fundamental like a bad earthing point. Or possibly one of the leads that come from the alternator. But electrical gremlins can be a nightmare. Possible ECU problems like water ingress? Bad battery connection. Good luck with this one :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
