Well notched up first 100 miles today but after we stopped for coffee & again just now when i put the car away in the garage , when the engine is running I am getting an " ignition on " warning with a hazard triangle & bonging sound !

Says press "ok" to clear ignition on, so it looks as if this may only be a safety feature. Try again after pressing this and see if it happens again. Also check what the hand book says about it Ex 2010 Freelander2 GS-e Diesel manual Silver owner

hi realspeed
yeah your correct I have to press ok to clear but don't remember doing that when i collected from dealer & first couple of trips out & it would be annoying to have to press ok with every start up along with everything else that needs pressing !
Just wondered if anyone else come across the same issue ?

Sounds like a glitch to me - you shouldn't have to do that. My 2013MY only does that when the engine is off, the ignition is on and I open the door. Quick call (or visit) to dealer? Gone... 2013 XS TD4 Manual Firenze Red

your a star thank you. Yep if a door isn't shut properly Which i remember when my wife & I swapped over driving & 2nd time it did it after coffee stop & boot had not shut properly & third time was when parking in garage so door wasn't shut too.!

Just been out & tried with door open ( message appears & if door shut no ignition on warning ) glad about that Thank you ! just jumpy after me last experince.

Just need to find out why the caravan electrics shut down when i plug into the car ! I'm sure someone on here said a fuse or relay was missing .

No worries!! I can't offer any quick fix advice for the electrics though!

However, sounds like something is amiss or protecting itself. Sounds like one for the dealer that one, has it been coded? 2013 FL2 - Black Edition Auto

When you say Caravan Electrics, do you mean the caravan lights outside or the electrics inside the van Question p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior
