Help, Flashing light on dash

Hi,
While driving to work this morning, i suddenly heard a beep from the dashboard followed by the yellow (!) light flashing on the right of the speedo display. When i got to work i turned the engine off and back on again, and its still flashing along with a red (!) on the left hand side which is on all the time.

Any ideas, as i have left the owners manual at home.

Thanks

Dave

Thinks its low tyre pressure if the symbol matches the one on the button at the side of the handbrake then it is. Press and hold button until light resets itself but check your tyres.

I had the same problem last week, one of my run flats kept going flat after a few days got it sorted now though, mine said to inflate to 32psi on all corners,
once you have inflated them all to the correct pressure turn the key so your ignition lights come on but dont start the engine, hold the button under the handbrake down until the light comes on and stays on, then start the car, this will reset it back to normal, after a few seconds the light should go out.

Hope this helps.

Gaz..........

I had this last week. I had to replace a tyre and the light came on when driving home. I checked all tyre pressures and then reset the pressure. It did worry me as thhat was the first time it has happened to me so I thought I had been given a faulty tyre!
