1STDISCO Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Hi guys, A dashboard light has started appearing on my 2001 Td5 disco, the manual says it is the fuel filter light, and if it illuminates whilst driving it indicates excessive water in the fuel. But it only illuminates occasionally whilst driving, and stays on for a maximum of a few seconds. There doesn't seem to be a common factor such as weather or time of day etc that it occurs. Any ideas what is causing this? Is there anything I can do to sort it and is it serious I'm absolutely no mechanic btw!! The car is still cover by LR used car warrenty if that makes any difference! Any help much appreciated! Thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAttrill Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Most people disconnect the things - they are on the bottom of the fuel filter in the left hand rear wheel arch. They tend to 'cry wolf' all the time anyway. Discontinued on later models anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 The light is merely an indicator to show when the sensor is broken Change the sensor, or do away with it... 99% likely to be a dud sensor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
