This may help show if you have a problem - it may even reset the light. With your ignition off, press in the button on the end of your wiper stalk(rt of steering wheel), still holding it pressed in, turn your ignition key but do not start the engine. All the dash lights should come on, a bleep/bell will sound every second, and your speed and revs dials will jump to different places in time with the sound. Press the stalk button once and the amount of fuel should be indicated in the mileage display area eg 25 L. Press it a second time and it will change - I don't know what this is but mine reads 0.0, a third time could be interesting as this indicates where you might have a fault - in one of 4 areas - . If no problem detected then simply four dashes viz - - - -, you might have - - E - for electrical; press it again and you go back to the amount of fuel. Lastly, if you press the mileage select button, this resets (I believe) the fault codes and might also reset your lamp. Everything goes back to normal. Now start your engine and see if the red light is there - turn it off again and repeat the procedure to see if anything has changed. Good luck!

Possible that you have a vacuum leak behind the dash. That would cause the noise and the run issue. No info in the USA on that car but lots of vehicles have vacuum controls for the heater and a/c. Need to disassemble enough to determine the source but very likely vacuum.

You are either low on Power Steering fluid or you need a new pump and/or Rack unit.

This could be a lot of things but basics first. 1. Loosen battery cables neg 1st take 4 heaping tablespoons of baking soda mix with 1gal water. Stir well and slowly pour over battary connectors tray everywhere by batt. It will bubble that's OK. Do not rinse. 2 pull cable connectors off and clean battery posts and inside of connector with wire brush or butter knife until its bare metal. 3 Reinstall cable and make sure there tight. 4 if you can pop the caps and check water level add to all holes until half inch from top. Tap water is OK!! If no maint batt you can not nor should you need to fill it. 5 check the voltage should be 12 1/2 volts. No meter any parts stroke will check free. 6 check were the other ends of the cables at starter selnoid and ground to body for clean and tight. That should do it if not get ahold of me for more.

some problem with the fuse or wires,

Sounds like you forze up the engine.

Hi, check the relays underneath the glovebox on he passenger side are all the way in, theses can come loose and cause the dipped beam to cut in and out. Or grab the black multi plug on the uch unit and move it to see if the fault occurs, if so a new uch is required

sounds like you need a new flywheel
