Two most common cause of limp mode in Epic Transits
1. Worn timing belt. If light goes out at start up then comes on when revved it could be stretched belt
2. Failed shut off solenoid on pump. If this is the case it will run on for a few seconds after key is turned off
If light stays on then it’s in limp mode.
Clear all the faults, and the light will go out and stay out"
Hi ake
I have to turn the key off Twice while driving in gear, to reset the engine light. The engine does not run on at any stage. However once the engine light has gone out, the engine does stall exceptionally easily between gear changes. The timing belt service sticker, says it is due in 20,000 km time. I could however change the timing belt now.
I also still have the one loose wire under the dash, near the fuse panel, that i can not find a spot for. It is a black sheathed wire with black with green tracer inside.
Thanks Will
