Mine was a false positive actually, came on and I shat my pants. Turned out it was just a bison on the roof not a horse at all, so that was a relief as I'm sure you can imagine.________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

Wow, you really did have a lucky escape there. Others haven't been that lucky, sadly. I remember when my Girl Friend had a baby and put it in the oil filler cap, that made the 'STOP' light come one too. Annoying thing was, she promised that she had put it in the bin.

Although I haven't had this problem I did once use a cat skin as my air filter and my GF borrowed the car - It came back with tip-ex all over the 'STOP' sign.

I got a chav wedged in my front bumper that caused the light to come on. I like him being there though so I just removed the bulb  An an unrelated note my headgasket went twice in the last month. Temperature was fine though as the stop light didn't come on so i'm baffled  ________________________________________ Bye bye Sundance Kid |

That's ok then, as long as it'll still make me aware of equestrian creatures on my roof.O/T but when you're on the naughty step here it says "This is not the place for pointless or abusive banter".

No more off-topic than the rest of the thread, I wouldn't worry. Don't really get that message, I thought that's *exactly* what this forum's for?!I did notice the OP hasn't replied in a while, looks like he didn't appreciate our useful info. ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

with the intention of bringing this thread right back on topic and just in case you were all wondering, according to my haynes manual, the blue sensor is there to measure the weight of the animal on your roof which is then clearly displayed on the orange backlit screen that sits behind the steering wheel. It also says that older cars tend to attract heavier beasts, so please for the love of god watch out if your driving a P1!________________________________________ "We never have any near misses, we hit them every time!"clicky code for my benefit [ url= http://www.website.com]My link[/url ] |
