ford focus automatic 4 speed 1.6 year 2000 - Automatic 4 speed gear box problems? - marcus45

when I put my car into reverse it takes a few seconds to engage then it bumps into the gear ,the orange engine light is on when before the engine starts up

when the engine starts up. after a few seconds another orange light comes on it is in the shape of an exploding star type thing and they both stay on..

I have checked the oil level in the gear box, its ok,there are no oil leaks and all the fuses i think..

It seems to change gear going forwards ...the two lights stay on all the time the engine starts ok and it's not over heating ..and runs great what can this be any ideas...thank you

Marcus
