Peugeot 406 warning light - AllanN
Last week you helped me out with a warning light problem on my 406.
These things seem to run in 3's and true form no sooner had I sorted them than another light as appeared
On the way home from work, I'm assuming that it is the engine management light (shape of an engine right in the middle of the display) came on and stayed on. It wasnt there when I started and came on about 10mins into the journey. From what little information I have been able to get this light can cover a multitude of engine problems. Is there anything obvious I can try (I'v tried diconecting then reconnecting the battery) or will it require a diagnostics test? If it does require a diagnostics test do I have to go to a dealer or are there mobile testers out there
Thanks again for your help,an advise

Any decent garage with the correct diagnostic kit can extract the fault codes from the ECU for you, doesnt have to be a main dealer.

When you have the fault codes to hand it makes the job of finding & fixing the fault a hell of a lot easier.
