GEARBOX OIL TOO<br />
HOT (red)<br />
Turning the ignition key to MAR the<br />
warning light shall come on and go off<br />
after about 4 seconds. If the warning<br />
light stays on or comes on when travelling,<br />
it indicates that there is a failure<br />
in the gearbox (flashing light) or that<br />
the gearbox oil is too hot (fixed light).<br />
– Fixed light = automatic gearbox<br />
oil max. temperature.<br />
Warning light coming on with fixed<br />
light when travelling indicates that<br />
gearbox oil temperature has reached<br />
the max. set limit; in this case stop the<br />
vehicle, set the gear selector to “N”<br />
or “P” with engine idling, (in this case<br />
engine cooling fans are on), until the<br />
warning light goes off. You can then<br />
continue driving but you should not<br />
tax the engine.<br />
If the warning light comes on again,<br />
stop the vehicle with engine idling and<br />
wait until the warning light goes off.<br />
38 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE<br />
If the warning light comes on again<br />
after less than 15 minutes, stop the vehicle,<br />
do not switch off the engine but<br />
wait for proper cooling of the engine<br />
/ gearbox unit (both engine cooling<br />
fans off).<br />
– Flashing light = automatic gearbox<br />
failure.<br />
Warning light flashing at starting or<br />
when travelling indicates a fault in the<br />
automatic gearbox.<br />
Engaging the 3rd gear, the automatic<br />
control system starts an “emergency<br />
programme”.<br />
Switching the engine off and then on<br />
again, the self-test system could exclude<br />
the fault and therefore turn off<br />
the warning light.<br />
Failure is however stored and the automatic<br />
gearbox shall be checked at<br />
a Fiat Dealership.<br />
