Hi all...
I'm new to this forum and hope someone can help me out with this.
My car was serviced a few months back, but the Service Light now comes on and stays flashing while driving and at idle.
I understand this light has a tendency to be erratic, but also that normally, since it's just a reminder of service due, it stays on solid (ie not flashing) for a couple of minutes, then goes out.
Resetting the light can only be done manually on a 1994 850 GLE and I've followed the correct procedure for this: pressing the button on the connector block A (to the right of the washer-filler cap) in the sequence 4-1-5-1.
I've done this before and it proved successful, but this is the first time the light has stayed on and flashed.
Any ideas, solutions?
Many thanks
