Ok, this is kind of a simple question but I haven't been able to find the info anywhere.
On the far left gauge with the fuel level on the bottom, what are the warning lights for in that gauge? There is a small red light and then the black screen across the top. I just finished putting the engine back together and when I went to start it I got the little red light until the car started. Thats normal. Then the left half of the black screen started blinking orange. I don't know what its for, hell I didn't even know it still worked. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif) |

Mine didn't work either until I asked about it here. Little door type plunger switch under the handle. I sprayed a little WD40 type lube around it. Works every time. The turn signal thing with the key off is normal. Asked about that here to. QUOTE Also my left turn signal does not flash the lights ...... but when I accidentally leave the post in LH position, the lights stay on after I switch the ignition off ...... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) ....... any help with either of these questions is very appreciated (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)!!! The left hand lights will stay on if you run the ignition off with the left directionals flashing, I believe the right does the same - its a parking light at night! My 928 and both Land Rovers do this also - its a European 'thing' (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Yes the ignition off 'staying on' part is normal ....... but the LH signal lights do not light or flash at all with the ignition on during normal driving .....
