engine management light vectra

[Ivor]

Car is Vectra r reg 1.8.

When car is low on petrol the engine management light comes on.When
the car is then filled up engine management light goes out.

Could anyone give me a clue as to what might be causing this?


TIA

The obvious question is to ask whether you are confusing the low fuel
warning light with the EML!

or there a wiring fault ? ? ?

Did you buy the car second-hand ?
You might find that someone has swapped the EML wiring with the Petrol Light
for some reason.
Can't think why though, possibly some dodgy fault rectification perhaps.
Buy a Haynes manual and a cheap multimeter and check the wiring for
yourself, its quite easy to do.
