What does this mean?

This has been coming up randomly while I've been driving for the last few days. Can anybody tell me what it means?

Thanks! I've got DS2500s on the car so it will hopefully just be a dodgy connection where it was bridged.

It means that the repair falls into the 'cheaper' end of the scale than if the cute little picture of an engine comes on (replacement gearbox in progress...am feeling a bit cynical). It also means you don't get to hear 'that needs doing while the engines out'. Sigh. Roll on Wednesday
