Have been in contact with NFT (Mary) it seems that disconnecting the TM-2/LCA has cured the fault.......it would seem that some part of the LCA circuit has earthed and as it was also connected into the oil warning circuit caused the light to come on.
NFT is returning the whole unit to me and I will report back on the findings.
Good news is.....The Bongo is A1 again.

Thank you Haydn for posting on this topic. I wanted you to comment first as I do not want to dis the TM2 in any way. I find it incredibly useful and reassuring. In various hot traffic queues the readout reassures me that the beast keeps its temperature down. Once this is resolved I will definitely fit another one.
I will pick up the Bongo tomorrow morning, remove the TM2 which has been disconnected and return it to Haydn for investigation.
Just very relieved that the Bongo is absolutely fine, no problems at all. The oil pressure, pump and sender have been checked and are all OK. I am a bit annoyed with myself I did not think of disconnecting the alarm. I just checked all wires were attatched and correct and assumed the worst.

I think you will find that the LOW COOLANT warning light was also on....along with the OIL WARNING.......and they all share the same buzzer.

Ummm .... On an LPG conversion they have to cut into the coolant circuit to plumb in the vaporiser heater ...
Then bleed the system ............. !!
