Flashing Hold Light

Post by monkey » Sun Sep 11, 2011 3:47 pm

Started getting intermittent flashing hold light a few months ago. Went away for a while and has now returned. Seems to start after having travelled for a while and then flashes between 10 and 20 times before going off. Starts to repeat soon after. Otherwise everything seems fine. Any ideas?

Wouldn't that suggest a gearbox fault? Strange it's so very intermittent though...

Have a look at the factsheets on getting a fault code, are you getting any other symptoms? rev counter or speedo issues? could be speedo chip if you've got one?

My money is on the throttle potentiometer especially if you are getting delayed or jerky gearchanges.
