    Exclamation engine light on and off randomly after a repair

    hey guys, i just had my fuel pump replaced after my car stalled and wouldn't start i tried to jump start it and it started then died while it's still attached to the other car... When it was fixed i can start it with no problems...Now the engine light will come on and off at random times.... But it doesn't stay on. When i got it back i had to put the code in for my cd player to.... Any ideas what the go is????

    You will need to take it into a workshop so they can plug the computer in and see what code is bringing the light on, it could have a loose wire somewhere or a sensor playing up intermittently.

    my vu ss does that too, it only comes on when im idling alot in traffic and the engine heats up a little. i dont think its a massive worry if it comes on and off coz ive never had a problem.
    but should get it checked out incase something is wrong
