Did your car come with a manual?

What does it look like? They usually are self explainatory.

Engine management light from memory. Take the bulb out, that'll fix it

Sounds like the glowplug light

Comes on in the mondeo for glowplug or engine management issues.

Get the code read (by a LOCAL GARAGE not a main stealer or they will charge you £90 for the privaledge) and then you will find the source of your problem.

Or, it could be the AIDS light. Your car may have AIDS. Hopefully the good kind.

Yes, it's obviously a glowplug light on his PETROL Mondeo. Moron.

Hope it isnt a glowplug light on a petrol (sorry couldnt resist)..

If ya try and explain what the symbol looks like then someone may have a more definative answer...

Either way its probably a right off..... Joke ;-)
