mx-3 question

my friend has a "hold" light on light on the dash of her mx-3 that is flashing while she drives and i was wondering if anyone knows what is wrong? her speedometer also stopped working.. that she thinks is just a wire ... which she is replacing this week.. but we were wondering about the light.. any help would be great.

there is a button on the side of the shifter. press it again and it will go out. I had an MX-3. I'm not exactly mechanically verbal in the way of the workings of that button so I am sure somebody will tell you what the hold button does.....Nothing is wrong with her car.

Just call Mazda up and ask for the service department. I'm sure they won't charge u for a little advice!
