Point me in the right direction boys, my van's fitted with all Rover gear and has a circuit check switch in the lower dash. Today it decided to ****** and by the time I got home it's staying on solid. Even with the ignition off.
I'm showing my mechanical naivety here but what should I be looking for?
As far as I know everything is as per usual, all lights, A/C etc are OK so I'm stumped as to why it's come on.
What kind of fault dos it recognize, just a blown light bulb or a poor earth somewhere?

Any help will be great guys!!

The light comes on after all the brake fluid is gone.
I'd check that.

So that's what that switch is for :roll:
Yep. The level was right on the min mark.
I better find out where all that fluid went to!!

Why is the word flick-er sensored to ******?

really it should just be a light. The switch function only acts as to test the circuit so you know if the light is working.
