Engine Code 14 - Ignition Problem ??

[STEVE C]

I'm getting the red warning triangle come on under boost for a few sec's then go off, This happens also if I brake hard.

 

I done the engine diagnostics test & it threw back code 14 - Ignition signal circuit.

 

Has anyone had this code? If so what did you do to rectify the problem.

 

I had a quick glance round the plugs & ECU and general connections I could see on the Ignition loom but can’t see anything lose or damaged.

 

The car runs fine, just keep getting the annoying warning light flashing on

 

Any help would be mucho appreciated

 

Cheers,

Steve

Thanks asuparcar for the link, I tried what I could in that fault procedure.

 

I ended up resetting the ECU went for a quick spin & it hasn’t showed up again, noticed my brake fluid was low so that’s properly why the red warning light was coming on under hard braking & acceleration.

 

Ill try the engine diagnostic port again in a few days to see if the code comes back.

 

Car feels more eager and responsive since resetting the ECU; I actually lost traction when the 2nd turbo came on a dry road!
