Ok Andy, This sounds like a ddefective #2 02 sensor located afther the catallytic converter. This sensor is the critter that turns the light on and that means it is talking to the electronic control module. Either your fuel misture is way too rich or the cat converter is failing. Good Luck-Ned-

Nissan primera 2005 1.8 sx goes limp mode at night with lights and wipers on. No measurable battery or charger problems. Switch off lights and the problem goes away instantly.

The only thing these components have in common is the ground wires. There are many grounds on a vehicle. But the main three are the battery to body, battery to engine and engine to body. These are fairly large wires/cables. They should be checked with an ohm meter. I replace or repair any wires that have more than 5.0 ohms of resistance.

washer jets could be blocked try a drawing pin to clean them. As for limp mode you should have engine management light on if you do use obd scanner for fault code.

Brake warning light comes on after car started but no apparent problems: brakes work OK including parking brake, & no impairment to driving. Any ideas? Mileage approx 112k. owned for about 3 mos,...

check the brake fluid level, if its low, it may be time to check the brakes for wear. As your brakes are used up, the fluid goes down and turns the light on.

THE BRAKE LIGHT WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AND THE DRIVER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT DOESN'T WORK. I CHECK AND CHANGED THE BULB AND IT'S NOT THE BULB. IF I TURN ON THE HEADLIGHTS OR PARKING LIGHTS, THE WARNING LIGHT...

well here's a start towards ur problem, due to the auto circuits u have an open return to the negative side of the battery. Have you done anything with the vehicle's systems before this started? the reason fo the strange lighting is that a positive voltage is being applied to what normally would be return side. You will need to get an electrical diagram if possible to pin point area if as previously asked didn't occur.

Ferrari 360 modena f1 speed restriction, safe mode

This great car does not have speed limiter, as you said the limiter is starting because the ECU detects a problem and put the car in limp mode, starting the Rev limiter.

The only way to know the problem is by connecting the car ECU to a code reader, and interpreting codes.

If the car goes in limp mode when you press the brake pedal can be a brakes related problem or even a contact on the brake light wirings, check if the lights are are working.

Ask your mechanic to scan the ECU, this will tell you what the problem is.

1997 isuzu wizard mu check light

Code 24 is a vehicle speed signal sensor fault, the sensor most likely does not provide a useable signal until about 25 MPH, when the computer doesn't see any signal after that speed it turns on the light. Make sense?
