I don't know what YOUR vehicle does specifically, but most diesels have "glow plugs" that come on when the engine is cold. The glow plugs warm a spot in the cylinder making the engine start much more easily, especially in cold weather. I can't speak for YOUR engine, but in general, there is usually a light on the instrument cluster that flashes while the glow plug is heating. Once the glow plugs are up to temperature, the light stops flashing and you can start the engine. If there is any doubt, read the section of the owners manual that describes the operation of the glow plugs.
If the warning glow light on your Seat Ibiza is flashing, it typically indicates a potential issue that requires attention, such as an engine problem or a malfunction in the vehicle's systems. While it might be safe to drive for a short distance, it’s best to avoid driving until you can diagnose the issue. Continuing to drive could lead to further damage or unsafe conditions. It's advisable to consult your owner’s manual and seek assistance from a qualified mechanic as soon as possible.
Mk3 07 plate 2.2 TDCi Mondeo ST Mine had been flashing intermittently for the last few days. Took it to Ford, and the chap said it could be a multitude of things, most common things are:- Defective Camshaft position sensor. Defective Crankshaft position sensor. Mine was caused by a defective EGR Valve. Whilst my Glow plug light was flashing, i also had a noticeable loss in power. Probably best to get it put on a ford diagnostic laptop, as it could be expensive just willy/nilly changing sensors. Hope this helps.
To address a flashing glow plug light on a Ford Mondeo TDDi, first, check for any diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) using an OBD-II scanner, as this can help identify the underlying issue. Common causes include faulty glow plugs, issues with the fuel system, or problems with the engine management system. Inspect and replace any defective glow plugs, and ensure all connections are secure. If the light persists after addressing these issues, it may be best to consult a professional mechanic for further diagnosis.

Are your brake lights out - usually it's a fuse for the brake lights.
To create a flashing effect in After Effects, you can use the "Opacity" property of a layer and keyframe it to change rapidly between 0 and 100. This will make the layer appear to flash on and off. You can also experiment with adding effects like "Glow" or "Strobe Light" to enhance the flashing effect.
they absorb light from before and then when it is dark they glow the absorbed light
I imagine that if the light is blinking the engine most likely has a glow plug out. This can often be tested by removing the preheat harness from the time/relay and using a test light. Attach the clip of the test light to the positive connection of the vehicles battery. Then probe the terminal of each glow plug, you might have to remove insulators and things to get to them. The result, if it lights up its good, if it does not, replace.
