the red ! warning light has come on and I don't know why! I have checked the brake fluid levels and they are fine! there seams to be no performance issues what so ever!

I have taken some picks of the lights on the dash when you turn the key in the ignition as scooter said to check them but don't know if anything is wrong sorry can anyone enlighten me as to what is wrong?

so just ran out of work and checked the codes but.................. the light just continuously flashes and does not pause!?

I know im thick but any ideas?

 

you have to be patient with the codes - insert the pin and then just take 5 to relax with a pen and paper and sit and watch the flashes for a pattern - i think you can re set them to wipe any old ones then perhaps have another look see - good luck

 

did you do the clutch fluid?

That is bullshit, Toyota are a global dealership, complain to Toyota UK.

 

w4nk3rs!!! May very well have to get my scribing tools out!:(

 

Just to make sure where is the clutch fluid level check? Think I know just want to be certain!

 

Boot was definitely closed and there is definitely no pause or sequence in the flashing no matter how long I stare at it!

 

I had little orange engines in my dreams! :taped:

I presume you have tried over filling the brake reservoir, as the level sometimes needs to be pretty high to avoid a warning light.

 

In your pic it looks like you have all the lights up, as in pre start check, what lights are lit when its running?

 

not tried the over filling no but it is very full!

 

the only warning light that is on is an airbag one! (2nd pic far left) as well as the red !

So when its running the orange check engine light is not on? only the red in the centre of the dash?

Post up a pic of the level of your brake reservoir.

 

Yeah just the read one!

 

I cant get a pick of the reservoir until the morning but i will do it first thing and post it up! is is SAFE to over fill the break fluid?:search:

Depends what you mean by overfill, thats why i asked for a pic;)

If you mean over the top marker line then yes, there are probably a couple of hundred Supras that are just to alleviate the problem you're suffering, however i.m not saying categorically thats your problem, just one more thing to eliminate.

 

If it was engine sensor related or such,IE fault code, the check engine light would stay lit.

thats a bit of a relief! I will check the level first thing and put up a pick tricky! Thanks! :thumbs:
