    Default Whats this light? (i'm new here!)

    Ok when the ignition switch is in the run position before I start the engine. and after the engine is stopped, it displays this. The local dealer says "Thats the engine management light it shows when the engines not running". The hand book seems to say it's telling me it needs a service (had a service 6000 miles ago).



    So what is it actually?

    Cheers!

    Ign off, foot on brake, press and hold trip reset button switch on ign(ign lights on, engine off) after about 12 seconds the display will change, release brake pedal and trip reset button. Hey presto........all reset(remember you still need to service the car though!!)

    Point taken. Now the Peugeot dealer I purchased the car from says they serviced it.

    The next question skulling around in my head is:
    If this light comes on is the car on the ECOflex (or whatever it's called) servicing?

    Sounds to me like it is on ECO-flex servicing, and this is what happens on mine

    There are two stages to the service light
    On stage one it comes on when you swtich on the ignition, and goes out when you start the engine
    This indicates there are less than 1000 miles to next service
    On stage two it comes on when you switch on the ignition, and stays on when you start the engine
    This indicates there are less than 500 miles to the next service

    To check the distance to next service
    Insert the ignition and press the mileometer button

    It sounds like the supplying dealer did not complete the service, so take it back to them and ask for the print out and service schedule they used
    The last point is "Reset service indicator"
