    Default Engine warning light on ford fiesta 53 plate.

    Hi All,

    The engine warning light came on this morning (staying on NOT flashing) but the car feels as if it?s running ok.

    It came on last year and was flashing but the car that time seemed to be misfiring and ended up getting it?s coil pack changed under warranty as it was only 3 years old.
    Think the warranty is ran out now.

    Anyone any ideas?

    Could maybe be a sensor thats had it, best thing to do in my opinion would get a diagnostics done.
