    Sounds like the engine compartment latch/switch is not making contact. You can probably jigger it or put some electrical tape in the latch tongue to get it to make contact. Otherwise, you're not going anywhere.

    And you can download the manual here:All Ferraris

    Cheers, Andy

    It could be as simple as the car is cold and unloved and needs more revs to build the pressure back up - it could be the pump is fading and may soon need replacing - it could be the hydraulic fluid is a little low - it could be you have a little looseness in the reverse lever

    It could be that it is not an easy diagnosis by internet but it need not be a major issue

    Sounds like the Kuhfulof valve syndrome. Def suggest asking the experts at your local experienced and properly equipped repair facility.

    Remember, be 'careful of' internet diagnosis's

    That is correct, it is an F1 gearbox warning. The potential causes are many so you need access to an SD and someone with experience.

    That is correct, actuator, pump, accumulator, though start with the basics, check F1 oil level, and pump relay (topic search should give many results). Also consider driving the car for a while to get things fluids flowing...
