Multi-function: Auto transaxle/cooling system light...

Exactly what the owners manual says. It didnt come on until this evening, but the car drove home fine. Anyone have a clue what this could be related to? OTHER THAN THE OBVIOUS? Any help would be appreciated.

In your SVT?

Do you have traction control in yours? I'd got a Predator if you want to check/clear the codes.

I don't know if steve will be there. I sent out an invitation to him. I am doing it on hermitmaster's svt, but steve said he might swing by.

I won't be making it, I got a call from my dad while I was in Detroit and he needs help putting the engine in the Healey Saturday so that's where I'll be virtually all day.

The light in a manual trans car indicates a small EVAP leak. Only time I am able to get mine to come on is if I remove the small vacuum line from the EVAP canister for about half an hour while driving.

stop filling your car with fuel while its running. 8) get the code pulled, if its a small evap code id suspect a gas cap, but it wouldnt hurt to get it smoke tested. 8)
