I had this problem before nothing major to worry about if it goes out but if it keeps on get it checked out for the knock sensor that is what was gone with mine!

plug the black leads next to the green ones. The green ones should be un done and not connected

np. let us know what it says when you do it.

Fingers crossed it comes back with no fault. Maybe just a dodgy bulb or something
