04 1.4 Warning Light- orange - danielthomas
Hi,

I hope someone can help, my mum's 04 reg astra has a warning light that has come on I haven't seen it myself so can't comment but she describes as looking like a squashed up helicopter with a propeller looking shape on the top and the side has anyone got any ideas.

04 1.4 Warning Light- orange - Dynamic Dave
To quote from the handbook.

Exhaust emission warning light.
Control indicator lights up when ignition is switched on. Goes out shortly after engine starts.


If it lights up when the engine is running:-
Fault in emission control system. The permitted emission limits may be exceeded. Consult a workshop. We recommend your Vauxhall Approved Repairer.



If it flashes when the engine is running:-
For fault that can lead to destruction of the cataly tic converter, see page 170. Consult a work shop immediately. We recommend that you consult your Vauxhall Approved Repairer.



Either way, it needs hooking up to a fault code diagnostic reader to establish what has put it on.
