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

Video tutorial
Detailed instructions - 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.

How to reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Citroën DS4?

The tyre pressure warning light on the Citroën DS4 can be reset by inflating the tyres until they reach the corresponding pressure value, which is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once all tyres are at this value, turn on the ignition by inserting the key into the ignition switch; this should make the warning light disappear from the dashboard. If it does not reset, start the engine and drive to allow the sensors to read the new values.
