So it's up and running again...

Down the road and within 100m...

Abs light.
Handbrake light went from yellow to red.
TCS light.
Tyre light.
Steering light not on but car feels as if it's in sport mode and heavy. Throttle not affected.

No frikin idea.

Codes pulled up front left speed sensor.
Abs control unit >10.5v
Steering sensor implausible.
Speed sensor implausible.

Parking sensors that have never worked... now work!

One serious electrical gremlin lurking... will to carry on with this car failing.
 
Sounds like battery or possibly issue with alternator, I'd get both checked!
I had similar issue last year and after changing battery it was alternator.
 
May be a new battery, but is it fully charged? Did you have some of the electrical system active for long periods of time while you were working on the car?

No none of that. I've just changed the clutch and DMF. Nothing was on during this time.

I've just done some live readings. .front left speed sensor is showing 0.6kmh... when doing 100kph. All other wheels were reading relatively accurate values. May have knocked the wire for this at some point. Maybe something else. But both sensors were new in December.
 
Dislodged an earth maybe? I'd fully charge the battery.. How long did it sit discharging between use of the car?
 
Wish I took a picture of this. The hub that this sensor goes into is split down the middle. The shock is also sitting a few mm lower than the drivers front.

Least I don't have to pull drive shafts!
