Spanner light
« on: 05 May 2014, 13:12:58 »
Hi all,

After having made a first attempt at changing an oil cooler yesterday, I refilled the cooling system with water and cleaner and refilled the oil.

Car started after a few attempts and ticks over fine.

Unfortunately I now have a spanner light lit up??

Using my Sealey code reader, it's says there are no codes, but if I select clear codes, the light goes out, but then a few seconds later, comes back on ???

Any suggestions as to what maybe causing this please?

TIA :y

Is that the large plug right at the back? If so, I did connect it, but I'll go and check it's still is  :y

Really need the code mate via pedal/paperclip test but I wouldn't be too concerned.... the code will more than likely relate to something you forgot to re-connect bearing in mind you just did quite a big job with it.

TPS is the one I always forget to reconnect  ::) ;D
