Jake Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 It's the general warning light. It comes on when you put the handbrake on which is why you see it in pictures a lot. And isn't it red rather than orange? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And isn't it red rather than orange? when ever i put my hanbrake on its the P sign that lights up is it not????? mines stays on all the time, what could that be? brake pads/fluid all fine no error codes nothing, have done a search on here and nothing seems to ring any bells Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you think fluid is fine it could still be that, it's a sensitive sensor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraStar 3000 Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I had the orange triangle ON and tried everything. Thor racing sorted it. Turned out to be a faulty speed sensor on the gear box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesmark Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I take it you've got an auto. The P is putting the gearbox in Park. You do know you have a handbrake too don't you Mike ok let me re phrase it, as i was talking about the handbrake anyway that the p is the (P) for handbrake not the p for park am not that dense, anyway when you put the handbrake on jake is saying that the red triangle should appear on the rev counter but when i put my hanbrake on the (p) on the fuel guage dial lights up like the same (p) on all cars that have a handbrake light the brake fluid was checked as the guy said that that was sorting my car he thought it would be the fluid straight away when i mentioned it but it turned out to be spot on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I have this problem too. Had a perfectly fine working h/brake light (incidentally i had the main one and little one on the right come on with h/brake) but brake fluid level was low. Topped up brake fluid and now I don't get the h/brake warning light at all. Faulty sensor at the exact same time as I topped up the brake fluid seems too coincidental to me. Is the lack of this light an MOT failure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
