Looks like a mobile phone ring indicator. Hold your mobile near it and have someone call you - does it light up?

I think it is telling you that your phone is many years out of date and it will not play until you go Android.

That would actually be a great idea for car drivers, have some sort of chip installed in the car that makes it impossible to use your phone for anything but emergency numbers Thumbs Up

12) On the Speedo, also there is a little light, when your mobile phone rings, it flashes. (New)


There may be a short in this bulb, or an earthing problem, that's causing your bike to cut out.
