Hi, after replacing the door handles on our TF last weekend, found the orange engine warning light coming on.
The car seems to be running fine, just unnerving to have any warning light.
Wouldn't have thought any work on the doors would affect the engine management - am I wrong and any suggestions as to what it might be?

Sometimes Management Light will extinguish after several re-starts of engine. If not , you will need an OBD to see if there are any fault codes or it can be used to put out light! Do not drive car if light starts flashing or turns red.

Thanks for your advice, bought a code reader and hope it helps solve the issue.

Bought the code reader (Autel AL319) which was easy to use and flagged up a P1070 Fuel Trim Bank 1 and P0303 Cylinder 3 misfire.
Goggling suggested that a MAF sensor could be responsible for the first code, and hoping its just new spark plugs/leads to cure the second code.
Does anyone know of a good mobile mechanic that will do a full TF service in Gloucester?
Thnx, Alex

Have you tried using your OBD reader to clear faults codes , MIL should then go out? There may have been a blip in system if car hasn't had a good run for a while.

Yes, I thought that too (as the car is used intermittently).
However, the car is due a service, so still looking for a good mobile mechanic.
Thnx, Alex
