The flashing spanner means the engines computer has noted a fault but it could be just a false warning, the correct way to cancel the light is to have a diagnostic computer connected to find the fault, but you sould be able to cancel the light by the following method Switch the ignition on, press and hold the trip reset button (by the speedo) the spanner will flash keep holding the button untill the spanner stops flashing and remains constantly illuminated then release the trip button and switch ignition off. If the fault is still present the light will come back on after you next drive the car!
