I have fitted a ZTEC SE 1.7 VVCpuma engine to a Westfield and would like to have a MIL/CEL light, can anyone advise of the wiring for this.

what engine management system are you using, and what dash?

Who in their right mind would want to fit a "Mother in Law" light ?????

I didn't like mine, and she didn't like me, so that helped

If you are using the original engine computer would think it would require the original instrument cluster --- engine computer will communicate with the cluster on the CanBus.

Using Ford ECU, dash is old fashioned style dash with ETB instruments, just wanted a MIL/CEL light to highlight if there was any issues, I have the engine installed with all the original ford sensors, when scanned it has no error codes other than wrong signal from fuel gauge.
