HDI Problem...

[Josh1994]

Hi all, I went to start my hdi on Saturday for a local meet, first time didn't start, second started fine but stop light came flashing on as well as the right hand side cooling fan? Would this be a sensor that I will need to clean or what else could it be? This came to the conclusion of me either to leave it being parked up or me taking it for a motorway thrashing drive even tho I don't thrash my cars, stop light still comes on regularly flashes three times then stops, I notice engine oil light comes on when I put the ignition on (never use to come on) I have checked engine oil and other fluids all seem fine, I know the car needs a service which I'm going to do later in the month.. Thanks

Probably the big loom connectors down on the right hand passenger side of the engine bay next to the radiator... Take them apart and clean them with contact cleaner and make sure it's all dry and put back together. Remove battery terminals before you do.

This is a fire risk if left, so be sharpish about fixing it.

Thanks, I will look at it tomorrow, will leave the car parked up until this is fixed.
