XM Steamy Vents

Unread post by Danmar »

after driving for about 10mins i started to get steam come out of the air vents the a/c was off, it went when i turned the a/c on, soon after i had the two warning lights come on (orange and red) is it the temp warning??? (The temp gauge indicated that temp was ok) and the stop light lit up. Can anyone tell me what the fuses 11 and 15 are for. Thanks

Steam from vents is usually symptomatic of a leaking heater matrix. I had the same problem with my Peugeot 405 some time ago.
Is one of the lights for low coolant? This would be logical if you are losing coolant through the heater matrix. The 405 lost quite a lot.
