(T) Engine Fault Warning!

Hi all, had "engine fault" flash up tonight... the engine icon stays permanently on but the car doesn't behave any normal really to usual??? any ideas - could it be to do with getting it remapped?

Thanks for any help provided!

Hi

Welcome to your first engine fault light

If it only happened tonight, I would let the car settle and see what happens when you turn the key in the morning, as it goes through self-diagnostics.

will do, ive asked alfanige bout it too and he thinks it will settle down too. will see in the morning!

I had an engine warning too a few day back, but it went away of its own accord! Maybe down to the cold weather etc, maybe completely unrelated.

I had one twice in the first week and each time was down to a loose connector somewhere, dealer ran a diagnostickythingymebob type thing and it took about half hour to get the car back.

did you still drive your cars with the fault showing then?

I have had numerous faults on both cars - the OBD light on the Ulysse can be a right pain - BUT I have always continued to drive the cars.

Matt, has the light gone off yet?

Only engine fault warning i had was when i had an engine fault, resulted in a new throttle body

yes i carried on driving, Fiat said if you feel like there's no difference in the car like throttle response etc then it would be OK to drive.

Only once on the M4, having had the OBD light on the Ulysse come on a few good miles back, did the car go into 'recovery' mode - believe me, you will know when it does - I just wanted to get off the motorway

light went off the second time i started it this morning! weird... good as new again now too???!!!

i have just had one too , are there any stoopid things it might be like oil level or anything i can check in the morning?
thanks.
