What is this led for? - 5/8/2007 3:03:24 AM    artifaction   Posts: 3 Score: 0 Joined: 5/8/2007 Status: offline So whats it for? it goes red when ignition is turned on and is lit for about 5 sec. I dont have a user manual for the car and this is my first ford so I have no idea. And I also have a fuel gauge that never turns off, some ideas what the problem can be? _____________________________ Ford Escort (VI) 1.6 - 96 Post #: 1
