Engine management/emissions light

[Fatboy_fat]

Can anyone tell me if the light comes on when you switch on the ignition, and then go off when you start the engine like all the others, or does it only light up if there's a fault. I only ask 'cos I've never seen mine lit....It's a Mk I 172, if that helps.
Cheers

Not sure about your car but my 1.2 16V the light comes on when i turn the ingition then goes off again.

Come to think of it ive never seen my petrol warning light

should come on and then go off. possibility the bulb may have gone.

next time its booked in for a service the diagnostics will show up any problems, and usually its only a minor problem if it comes on in most cases

Thanks for that, looks like I'll be having the dash out then ! I hate it when things don't work... Anyone know the bulb type, so that I can get one before I start.
Thanks again.
