Pajero Owners Club of South Africa

I have just received my Gen 3 DiD back from having a new turbo actuator fitted. The car now pulls much better and the engine light does not come on any more.

However, when I started the car this evening, the oil pressure, water trap, A/T Temp and alternator lights stay on. The indicators also do not work. The car runs fine though.

Where should I look? I presume it is electronic as all these systems cannot have failed in one go.

Found the problem. The hazard warning fuse has blown. Replaced it and all is fine.

Hi Kennekan.

I have had an issue the last few months of those same 4 warning light (I think) flickering in unison under certain road conditions.

Please advise, to save me time looking it up, where the hazard warning fuse is located.

Mine might be on its way out because the Hazards still work, I used them yesterday.

The hazard fuse is in the large fuse box next to the battery. It is marked with a triangle. It is a 10 amp fuse.

Mine did not flicker though. From my research I found three possible causes:

1. Blown fuse
2. Alternator on its last legs (most likely)
3. ECU that needs reprogramming

Fortunately mine was just a simple fuse.

Mmm, no.2 sounds expensive.

First step is to check my fuse, thanks for that.

I need to check next time it happens exactly which lights. Im sure they are all on the top row of lights biased slightly to the RHS. 3/4 of what you experienced.

Oil pressure (your 4th one) is one row down on the LHS

You are right. It is not the oil pressure. More like oil temp

Also check underneath your vehicle. I had an intermittent flickering of those lights on corrugated roads long ago. Turned out to be the wiring harnass going under the gearbox that unclipped and was touching the front driveshaft and earthing as the driveshaft chaved all the plastic protection off by that time. I was very lucky not to have burned out the whole car by the time I discovered the culprit when it became permanent and ripped off half the harnass!!

Oooh, thanks Cats.

That's sounds like I must get under there straight away. I really don't need any expenses right now.

Much appreciated.
