hi last night coolant and engine electrics light came on looked at previous threads and most common fault seems to be earthing points of cooling systems!

can anyone please tell me the earth points of this, i think there's 8!
or if not too much trouble can post pics from haynes manual of the points!

the other prob could be that the air con needs re-gassing, i'm going for a drive now so i'll put the air con on make sure thats working ok!

anyone else had other probs with this light?

thanks!!!!

Try the earth on the passenger side a-pillar. It is behind the footwell trim near the top. These lights came on when my car had an earth problem - although I had much more going wrong at the same time. Good place to start though.

Open the passenger door. In the foot well there is a cover lext to where your left leg would be if you were sat down. Under the cover towards the top is this:
