The meaning of an orange warning light on the dashboard of the 2001 Fiat Ducato 2.8

Model: Fiat Ducato MK 2 - Years 1993-2016
Part: Dashboard

In this video we can discover the true meaning of a warning light that many Fiat Ducato users, like the youtuber, have mistaken for the radiator fluid level. It is actually the warning light for the presence of water in the diesel filter; especially biodiesel can produce some water, which ends up in a sort of decanter, where there is a sensor with a small filament, which warns that it is time to replace the filter, due to the presence of this residual moisture. First, we disconnect the filter connector, then we change the filter, which must be changed every 2 years or 40,000 km.
