I've been looking for a runnaround for a while, cheap car i can scrap in a year.

Now im going to look at one this afternoon for dirt cheap cash, but it has two fault lights on.

one is the airbag which i understand is common when the seat is moved too far.

the other though concerns, it is the injector light. however the car still runs fine whith no issues, is it worrying? i've been told it could be anything but the fact the engine runs fine suggests its minor.

Airbag light is quite often caused by the sensor under the seat; you can probably get an autoelectrician to reset it for £10 or so.

As suggested, the injector light could be almost anything; lambda, MAF, crank sensor being the regualr culprits.

I had the injector ligt on my 155 for the 2 years I had it, never caused me any problems.
