Pesky ABS light again

(1/1)

Mud_Medic:
After a little light off roading, all was well. I washed the Disco down. All was still well.

After taking the bus around the block before reversing it back on the drive, there was a sqeaking of brakes as I pulled to a halt. The TC and ABS light came on.

Reversed onto drive with no problem.


When I restarted the engine, the TC light was out, but the ABS light remains on constantly. :cry:

Is this likely to be something simple like an ABS sensor, or something the main stealer  :evil: will need to perform a wallet-ectomy over.

Thanks for your ideas.

Ed,

Depends where you are.  There's a few of us with diagnostics that I'm sure wouldn't mind lending a hand to find out what error has been thrown up.

But yes, you do need to have the ECU checked, and the dealer is a last resort  :wink:

Mud_Medic:
Thanks Simon, thought as much.

The vehicle is an 01 discoII V8 and I am in Herefordshire.

There might be things you can check yourself, have a look in a workshop manual if you can get one, like RAVE for example.  Even without diagnostics you should be able to check some of the inputs to the ABS unit.
