I'm with Bruce on this one. Certainly helps if you tell what vehicle it is, we aren't mind readers :roll:

I thought bogged's question was reasonable.

Just because your Username makes sense to you, doesn't mean that everybody knows what you drive. Frp88 could be your initials and date of birth.

Given that this question is apparently about a specific vehicle (Toyota?) why is it in the "General 4x4 Tech/Discussion" section? What's "General" about it?

Green means that it is on boost, red means that the turbo is overboosting and at least in my mates bundera it also machanically stopped the injector pump feeding any more diesel into it and it felt like the engine hit a flat spot.
Not sure what he did to specifically did to fix it because he rebuilt the engine and turbo and it went a heap better afterwards and the red light never came on again.

the green light is a boost indicator, it comes on at approx 2psi. the red light is an overboost indicator, it will come on at about 10 - 11psi.

and everyone else stop bitching.

Yep, all he's told us is the manufacturing year of his Fiberglass Replacement Panels :D

If I told you I had BFG04 you'd know what the 2nd light on the top left row of my dash did, wouldn't you?

Who's bagging? We just couldn't tell what type of vehicle you are refering to by just frp88, it's not a lot of info. FRP is a fiberglass company up here doing any brand vehicle.
