Thread: Oh Noes, I got Bad Lights on my Dash

    Default Oh Noes, I got Bad Lights on my Dash

    Hi All,

    Been having this issue off and on for a while, were it usually appears after heavy acceleration on a corner with a little dip in the road I get the "ABS, DSC SLIP & Handbrake" Light appearing.. Turn the car off back on and it's all gone.. and it sometimes doesn't appear even if i do the same thing again. No CEL errors either?

    Anyone had this issue?

    got anything that can scan codes?

    the only time i have seen those three codes thrown is when i did my suspension install and forgot to plug the ABS sensor back in on the front strut.

    maybe check that? it's easy - just take the wheel off and look down towards the axle stub from the top. check it's plugged in ok. if so you can also remove it with a star shaped allen key (forgot what those things are called) - give it a squirt with some brake cleaner, maf cleaner, contact cleaner whatever.

    I have nothing to scan with, but i have the feeling you are right. The first time i've noticed that was when i got new tyres on my car.. about 3-4 days later i got the light the first time.... i gotta do each wheel?

    Check fronts first but could be a good chance they knocked something loose.

    Well it came on again, after hitting a bump (not a big bump).... Service is due soon, should get it checked...>.<

    ditto, I had this light come on after I disconnected the abs sensor while changing the shocks. Try disconnecting and connecting the plugs to make sure they have good contact. If that fails, try resetting by disconnecting the battery.

    I dont think an OBD reader picks up these codes? Anyways, happy to try with my reader if need be
