I remember last year when the EDC warning light in my Iveco suddenly came on while I was on the highway—it nearly scared me to death, so I quickly pulled over. First, I popped the hood to check if any wiring connections were loose, especially the sensor plugs, which were covered in dust. Cleaning them didn’t help. Then I tried disconnecting the battery’s negative terminal for a few minutes before reconnecting it, hoping to reset the computer system, but the light stayed on, suggesting a deeper issue. Eventually, I had to tow it to the repair shop, where the mechanic diagnosed a faulty fuel pressure sensor. Replacing it fixed the problem. Now, I make it a habit to inspect the engine bay wiring harness regularly to avoid similar situations, but for serious issues, it’s best not to tough it out alone.
