Thread: 97 V8 Discovery warning light help..

The light is a side view of the car with a key symbol horizontaly inside.. its located above the fuel guage on the right hand side of the battery light.

Could anyone advise as to what this light represents?

Thanks for your time

I believe this is the engine immobilisation symbol. My manual says: "This light indicates the engine is immobilised. The engine can only be re-mobilised by pressing the unlock button on the handset."

It is part of the alarm/immobiliser. It comes on to indicate the engine is immobilised. The workshop manual says it'll also come on if you try to start the car without the remote being within range of the car

Only 2mins in it!

Try sticking new batteries in your plip, the signal to the coil will be strengthened & the light will dissapppear.
