2007 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 XS CSW Rimini Red

ABS/TC

I've looked through forums trying to find a definitive answer to intermittent and random ABS/TC lights coming on , the nearest I can find is a chafing wire near the "rear left outlet valve" but not knowing where it is or what it looks like it's not much help, so if someone can tell me where it is and what it looks like, or any other solutions, my dealer can not find any problem as it does not show on a diagnostic test. So any help appreciated.

I had exactly the same thing. It was a piece of wire jammed in the ABS unit, giving an intermittent contact. The stealership wouldn’t believe me as the fault had always gone when it went in. Hope you get it fixed, as it’s annoying seeing the TC and ABS light coming on.

Thanks Brian, I've fired this off to my stealer.

I've had this problem for ages. The ABS/TC lights come on when my vehicle has been standing still and idling for a while. The lights go off after I have re-started and gone above 20kph.

Thanks Lorryman100 I will be contacting my dealer today wanting to know why they presume to know nothing about this, cost me £60 for them to tell me that.
