Warning lights id
Just developed suspension issues whilst driving the normal warning lights came on but in addition the speedo stopped working and an additional light came on could anyone identify for me,
Once stopped and started again the compressor runs for a few seconds then cuts out.
I know there is plenty of dicussion on this but its the addition light thats throwing me .Mike

The light facing upwards is the Adaptive front lighting system symbol
(if you have this fitted, you should have 2 bulbs fitted into the front sidelight chamber)
This is the light that comes on when you turn a corner

It's not the 2 bulbs fitted into the front sidelight chamber, it's the eye balls that move about.
Do you have any ABS failure warnings ?

Yeap. Lights will also need to know speed I think.
Yeah I’m sure. You have Corning lights but not adaptive.

No it was broken and one of the cores was corroded and parted. New part fitted and tested ok. Its amazing one sensor goes down and numerous warning lights come on and compressor stops working. Mike

It could be worse, imagine if one failing sensor caused an aircraft to fall out of the sky.....
