stu79 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 My 2001 Smax 'engine warning light' came on yesterday and has stayed on. Spoke to Ford garage and earliest they can look at it is weeks time! They said it was ok to drive but I'm not conviced. Any help would be gratefully appreciated. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btmaldon Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 If the light starts flashing, then you need to stop before any damage can be caused. The light coming on normally indicates that it has noticed a problem more than once such as a misfire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
