I have noticed that my Engine Management Light does not come on, as part of the start up check. At first I thought it might be, because it was not fitted. I have an original Puma user manual. And there is no mention or illustration of this light. So I decided to explore further an remove the instrument cluster and check to see if it was actually fitted. Happily! I found it is fitted. However, I also found that as this is the digital facia, there are no lamps fitted. Instead there are LED's hard wired onto the main PCB.
So with no lamps to replace, this either means: (1) the LED is faulty (2) there is a fault on the ECU that is preventing it from illuminating (3) there is a wiring fault between the ECU and Facia PCB.
I could have been the case that this was intentionally disconnected to cover up a fault. I have a Gendan diagnostic unit, and this tells me there is no faults present. I guess I will have to delve further and see if the signal is present during the power on test. Then I will be able to definately say whether the LED is at fault, or it lies somewhere else. If anyone else has similar experiences I would be really interested to know. Cheers
