idiot light..... for an idiot? 5cyl turbo

okkkkk Please help me find out what the heck this idiot light is in my Unimog with a 617.952 (300 turbo Diesel). It is not a stock idiot light and may have been installed at same time of the upgrade to the 617 which is why I ask here.

1. Think of what kind of gauge's or idiot lights are installed in MB's with the 617

2. It has come on and stayed on for a while once before. It became intermettent and faded out eventually. A itallian tune up may or may not have finally got it to go out.

3. Came on in wet weather first time

4. has just come on again after wet weather but their has been some previouse wet weather that did not activate it????

5. Once it starts comming on again ... it will come on when you first turn on ignition switch but before glow plug is button is pushed (seperate button) and before engine starter is activated (seperate button)

6. I have an oil pressure gauge and it seems to be ok

7. I have Volt and Amp meters which also seem to be ok

8. I cant just follow wires.. it disappears up into a hard to reach and see area that is a mess of wires
