motor control system failure
 

Disaster? On journey down to south west, light came on with message as
title. Engine runs with slight hesitation but continued for 75 miles
without mishap. What could it be? I've had a turbo pipe blow
before.....seems different. Oh yeah it's a 1.9 JTD. Cheers. Jim

answer to that problem, IME.

You haven't frightened me off but I am hoping to hear a possible easy
solution to my problem. Currently my battery is disconnected and I'm
hoping for the best!
