What does this warning light mean?

Buddha:
Hi, can anyone tell me what this warning light means? - Gearbox/Transfer box? Is it supposed to be a temperature or level warning?

Many thanks,

gtomo2:
iirc its the temp warning for the gearbox. mine comes on when i apply the handbrake think that is normal.

Buddha:
Thanks for the swift response.
First time I saw that light is when I last went laning, have left it to dry out, 'cos it did get wet, in case it's the sender. Took the car on a short local journey & that was back on before the coolant temp guage was up to 'normal'

gtomo2:
Oh dont sound good. not sure what would make it come on apart from high temp. Have you hosed the rad and oil cooler clean after you went laning as the fins could be clogged with dirt that may course it to over heat.  or could of got water in the gearbox., or water in the connector that is coursing it to short out and light up. try giving the connectors a good spray with wd40 as thet is the easyest thing to start with. Shure someone will be along that will know better than me what would course it to come on.

andygod:
Mine came on after driving through a ford about 8 months ago. It comes on regularly sometimes from the initial start up so I know its not a temprature related problem. I have removed the wires from the switch, sprayed it with W.D.40 and checked the oil levels etc, all to no avail. Can water damage the switch?
