    confused Please Help with Heaters Plugs

    I have had my Signum 1.9CDTI for 18 months now and have decided to sell it.

    Unfortunately the light for the heater plugs flashes constantly on the dash and I have taken it to three garages now locally and no-one can tell me what is wrong with it.

    I have changed the plugs and when the guys at the garage have put it onto the computer they can find no fault.

    I have had three people come to look at her but they will not buy because of this light even though I have explained that the car is driving 100% and starts every time.

    Please can someone help as everyone I have spoke to so far has no clue what to do to stop this from flashing???

    Try removing the thermostst connector & spraying with wd 40 or elec contact spray, (does your temp gauge work ok sits at 86-90) when engine at running temp.
