...the \'Heat\' light to come on and stay on for a few seconds??

I know that it\'s not knock as my values are OK, nothing has changed to cause injector duty problems (causing it to flash)

Did it originally come on and stay on to indicate a hot cat?

Yes, that was what it was for. I believe there is a temperature sensor by the tunnel on the passenger floor?

Maxing out the injectors will also see the light come on when using a power FC ecu.

I thought that maxing injectors causes it to flash?

My light comes on solidly for a few seconds. And it\'s usually whilst stationary or under very light load??
