For those who saw my initial post I knew the car I just bought had an illuminated check engine light, although the car seems to be running perfectly normally.

So I’m waiting for a cable to come so I can check with TOAF what the issue is, or get a T4 session booked, but in the meantime I tried Arctics suggestion of reseating the fuel Filter connector (although I’ve not yet dug my spray out to
do it properly) and I thought that did the trick as the light went out and stayed out for a few restarts. It comes back, but after 3 ignition cycles it goes out again, and stays off for a few more restarts.

The previous owner stated it had been on for a couple of months and went out for the first time after I first saw the car and checked the fuel filter. I’ve only had it a couple of days, so I’m hoping it is something daft, I’ll update this thread when I know more / get any error codes.
