It's a part of the filter that separates the water from the fuel. The warning light tells you that the water trap has water in it.

On LDV vans before you start the engine look under the fuel filter and loosen the fairly large plastic drain off, that will let any water out and it should stop the light coming back on. May be similar on your Transit.

Its an engine management light probably if not flashing will be telling you that there is a water deficiency in the diesel or the filter is dirty.

Simply get some strong bleach and pour about a 2pints in the diesel filler(where you put the diesel fuel) , this will float to the filter on the diesel and clean it out and evaporate completely before it reaches the hot engine (make sure engine is hot first)
