Brian, that was the first place I looked. There's no entry in the US manual
for this indicator, which would corroborate several other listers'
suggestions that a bulb was put in the wrong slot (when the IC was out in
June). I have not removed the IC to check this yet.

However, I did VAG the car last night and found an engine error code.
Cleared it and the light went off. There ya go.

It did not come back on when my wife started the car this morning.

We'll see if it does later...in the meantime I have to pull the IC and move
that bulb back to where it belongs.
