Wasn't planning on doing it, Mike, just referencing the earlier post by Monkeydonkeyratmagic. MoT due in a couple of weeks, so it needs fixing pronto.

I'd be round to your place poste haste if you weren't almost 200 miles away.

Pop up, jump on train to Manchester/Liverpool, see some sights and come back to a fixed car..

While a fixed car sounds wonderful I'm confused by the idea that there's interesting things to do in Manchester or Liverpool... :oops: :rofl:

That's the exact combination I had. The tyre pressure one was confusing.

Mine was caused by doing track rods. Recalibrating the steering angle sensor at your suggestion finally cleared all my lights

I also had this combination of warning lights. It turned out to be the front left speed sensor, which took about 30 minutes to replace. All the warning lights then cleared after a short test drive.

Thanks all. Will take it somewhere to get the codes read and take it from there.

If all else fails, the Mrs and I have promised ourselves a few days away in the z sometime soon. Maybe we'll plan it to drive past Mike - I could do with the keys sorting out as well!

Oh no.... A few weeks into zed ownership and this has happened to mine.... Codes say definitely the abs unit.

Looking at ecutesting as advised here. My question is... The unit is in 2 sections, does ecutesting need both sections or just the easy to remove bit?

Did you both have tyre pressure warning as well? The ABS unit is typically just the handbrake, TC and ABS (three lights total).
