Amber warning triangle light

 ·  Posted: 05.10.2022  ·  #1

The Amber triangle light stayed on a couple of weeks back. It was a misty morning at Lough Rynn. I checked all the bulbs but all OK. The light didn't come on for the next few journeys but came on again last weekend. Again early morning but went off later that morning. Any ideas. 2018 Ducato. There is a list in the manual but a lot don't apply to my model.

Happened to me, bad connection on a brake light. It worked then didn't work.
Remove them all and clean.

I had the same problem with the Amber light staying on,the problem turned out to be one of the rear number plates bulbs wasn't working.

I was checking the light and it was on early morning yesterday but was off by midday. Thought it maybe damp or cold that was causing the problem. I checked my tyre pressure and one was low 64 psi. I pumped it up to correct 79psi. Not on today. Could this light be used to indicate low pressure even though this is not on the list in the manual.

On your year of MH, yes it could be, was the tyre pressure ok, first thing in the morning when the light was on?, but went out when you drove it around? or was it stationary all morning.

I recently was using my daughters car and it was showing the low tyre pressure message when started but I was going off after a little driving.
When I checked the tyre pressures they were all a bit low.
Perhaps they were just at the cusp and when the driving warmed them up the pressure increase was enough to put the message off.

That's the way I'm thinking.

Goes off without moving . Seems to be temperature related. Do these alarms stay in the system? If I get a diagnostic test will it show historical data.

Took it to the Fiat dealer in Drogheda first thing on Tuesday. Alarm not on . Put the computer on it and said the code was for the oil pressure sensor. He did a physical check on the sensor and it tested ok. He did a software update and this cleared the code. Left the garage €90 lighter. No alarms since .
