I have a 1999 Citreon Synergie 1.9td . Has anyone any idea why the red stop light flashes. It could flash after you start the car or after you drive it for 15, 30, 60 mins. at any time. The fan comes onalso but the temp. needle shows normal. Anyone any ideas thanks

hi

recon you got a faulty fan sensor, its linked to the stop light, the temp guage gets its info from a separate sensor, hece the temp appears normal.

Hi

don't know if your Citroen is the same as other PSA 1.9 XUD cars
my Pug has two sensors on the thermostat housing one for the fan and one for the fans/stop light. Dont mix up these wires (ie dont disconnet both at same time!). Check your wiring diag for colors or these wires.

it is overheating which could be a faulty sensor telling the ecu its overheating causing the fan to come on which is the problem i had in the past which is more likely or the worst case it is overheating and your gauge is not registering
