    Hi All
    If anyone out there has an 89 LeBaron convertible, I would love to know
    what warning lights you should get when you power-up on the left hand
    strip. On switch-on, I am not getting either an engine check or power
    loss light. Question is - should I? For diagnostic codes, the 3
    key-flicks gives nothing. I do get an air bag light & another right
    below it on the left, but nothing else save the seat belt sign in the
    main cluster. OK - so blown bulb - but trouble is, I don't know where
    this light should be! Most grateful for your know-how.

    Hmm that's normal, its a bulb test. How would you no if you engine oil
    pressure late worked if you didn't see the idiot late turn on at start up?
    You need to worry about those lites not working on start up.
    As far as the seat belt lite, some vehicles didn't have that option and if
    yours is equipped and not working doesn't mean it is the bulb. It could be
    the switch in the belt or a wiring issue.

    Yes, thanks Glenn. I pulled the dash surround & the left hand strip
    away from the bulb holders. No bulb in lowest position! This is the
    engine check light. Now I have won the lottery with codes. I have
    37,21,15,23 - with 12&55 at either end. Now to look up the meanings &
    figure out why it's stalling! Thanks Mark

    Is this a Turbo? it has been years since I have worked on one of those but
    your stalling problem may be the code 15. that is the vehicle speed sensor.
    As the vehicle comes to a stop the vehicle speed sensor controls the
    automatic idle speed motor until the vehicle comes to a stop. You also have
    an 02 sensor that isn't switching properly which could also contribute to
    the stalling problem. The code 23 I believe is a charge temp sensor fault.
    not sure about the 37 but may be EGR or a trans solenoid fault. google it.
