Obvious advice but stop immediately if you get red warning lights as carrying on could damage the engine.

If you replaced the regulator is it worth checking the sensor ?

hasnt come up since last time when it lighted up on the motorway two days ago.Now the light is not on the screen probably because i drive the car no more than 50 mph.the next thing which i am going to change is the sensor.
