406 STOP warning light flashing

Hi all

on my 406 the STOP light keeps comming on flashing
all seems fine though, and it goes out again when speeding at and over
160Km/h. The Stop indicator is the only one comming on, not the oil
pressure, not the water pressure comming on with it
when speedingi can release the gas pedal, and drop the rev's, it does
not go on flashing until the speed drops under 160 ore so and than it
starts all again. The odd thing is that it does not behave like this
all the time and i'm thinking of a faulty sensor of some kind.
Note that in wintertime here in Holland they use tremendous amounts of
salt to keeps the roads open, so i tend to believe that this could be
the cause of the problem
I have not had any time to book it in @ the pug dealer,and hook it up
to the mighty al know pug computers so maybe one of you might have had
a similar problem an can narrow it down a bit.


Thnx

Your problem sounds familiar to me =o)
But in my peugeot 309 stop light on the control table is on all the time.
Tehnicaly the hand brake should be up but it is not !
Everything works just fine in my car but that red stop light is on and on.
I also suspect that something is wrong with some contact.
Any ideas ???

 

What engine

 

It is 1,8 Diesel
