Ford Transit Connect Red Warning Light

[springbulb81]

Hi,

I have a 60plate ford transit connect. A red circle light as appeared on the dashboard. Other forum saying something to with immobiliser but the engine starts fine. When the engine running, if you open the van door the lights turns to yellow, but then close the door and it turns back to red! Can't find the answer on ford forum! What is this light??

Brake wear indicator faulty?

Are you sure? Or is that a suggestion?

The question mark would be an indication of uncertainty.

It's a suggestion. My powers are weak at distance.

Ford Transit / Connect powertrain (cog / exclamation mark) dash warning light

Powertrain Warning
Powertrain Dashboard Warning LIGHT

This dashboard symbol may illuminate red or yellow / amber on the Ford Transit / Connect. A cog with an exclamation mark inside indicates a malfunction with the powertrain, a sensor or software fault. A malfunction with the powertrain may see the vehicle lose a certain amount of power, but will continue to run. If light flashes whilst driving, avoid heavy acceleration or deceleration and gently reduce speed. Symbol may illuminate with the engine warning light MIL -(see below). If both lights illuminate together, a continual reduction in power is likely, possibly followed by the turning off. Have vehicle checked by a Ford technician immediately.

It's not a cog with an exclamation mark it's just a plain red circle, nothing else. Why would it turn yellow when you open the door then go back to red when you close it?

Check the handbook, it must show the dash symbols.

Take a photo and post it on here using tinypic. I can't find anything which says there's a circle with nothing inside. Maybe you've got a faulty warning light?

[springbulb81]

It's shows every warning light and symbol except! Someone must know

If the handbook does not show it then try a trip to the local ford agent, ask the question, I'm sure someone would help.
