You need a good code reader to find out why its on, and to possibly to reset it.

What was you doing for it to come on?

Mine came on a month ago (and is still on) directly after changing the fuel filter on my 2.5TD.It
wouldn,t self bleed for ages probably turning over 5 mins or so.When it did start the light came on
and stayed on.     Not sure if this helps in your case

Its probably triggered a low voltage error  on yours due to lots of cranking,it will need a decent scantool to read and delete it though as it will not self clear :y

I have an OBDII reader/restter that has always worked on the petrol versions, never tried it on an oil-burner ! - if you wish me to try I'm only in Wooty B  :)
