Hi

I have a orange ORANGE snowflake on dashboard when it is below 5degrees now its 0degress And its RED does it mean I need to wait for it to become orange or something ? Because usually I wait 5-10 minutes before driving off

it will change colour, amber to red as it gets to freezing... anything under 1 and the snowflake turns red. just and alert of the outside temp so be wary of road conditions.

Mine doesn't go red. Orange is all I get. I think they modified it as believe folk seen a red light and booked it into a dealer thinking something was wrong.

Weird. My fiesta is April 2014.

I think they ditched it on fiesta somewhere in 2014 or missed it from thier software.

Mine doesn't turn red either, it was minus 2 the other morning on the way back from work. 2015 Titanium X

My old zetec used to go red and bong as well

It's just a pity we can't ask ford the theory of why they changed it on fiesta.

My neighbours bog standard 63 plate 1.25 Zetec Fiesta has this feature

It's as useful in the winter as the heated screen i.m.o. & a very cool safety feature ( if observed )

Are you saying you can see it's 0 or -2 ?

From the warmth of your car ?

In the dark ?
