Does anyone here know what this dashboard light is for ???

Van a 2001 Ford Transit 350 (2.4L Diesel turbo)

Don't think it's an oil pressure light...

As it has the normal red oil light on the other side of the dashboard...

Check oil and service tbh..

Oil level is full.....(I gave it a oil & filter change this morning and light still on)

Am also thinking it's a service light because of having the picture of the spanner...

Its a service light. It should tell you in the handbook how to turn it off. You have to do something with the pedals.

yep to turn it off you turn the igntion on one click and hold down the accelerator for 25 secs i think

Thanks guys


I found this below while searching the net http://fordtransit.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=34746

service light, can beturned of by yourself if you want to.

turn ignition lights on, but dont start van,
press both accelerator and brake pedal at the same time for about 30 secs,
light will start to flash,

light has been reset.

I give these pedal presses a go tomorrow...

It's not my own van...it's my employer van (His daily work horse)

If he's got the nouse to service his own van he wouldnt ask Overclockers what the little spanner icon on the dashboard means.

Yes i do about 90% of the servicing on my employer vans/cars/machiney myself...(Apart from his wife Mercedes)

As for the light,I said to my employer it was a service light when he showed it to me first thing this morning..But he replyed with doubting it was as why would it just come on now after 3years and 30,000miles of use...Which is what made me asked on here..

If it's passed its MOT
