Hi,
The temperature of my Nissan Patrol went up due to a shortage of water in the radiator. Probably because of that, a light showing an engine has immediately displayed on the left side of the dashboard (left if you look at it from my seat).

The problem is that the light has continuously been on for 3 days already, and I'm affraid there would a serious failure in the engine or out of it.

Please help me / advise, and many thanks in advance.

It is my first question here, as I just registered today.

B rgds,
Osvaldo

You need to get the computer scanned for code/s to find out what's going on with the engine management system.
