ABS / Traction Control Issue
Pulling my hair out now. Big Cry

Did some work on the car this week to fit an Alpine subwoofer and the uprated steering arms. During the process I had the battery disconnected for a few hours and the car has been parked for a week.

Put everything back and went for a drive this morning, ABS & TC lights were illuminated. Pulled fuse 8 and reset everything before going for another drive and now the lights are gone but the TC is operating all of the time. Have disconnected the battery for a reset but still got the TC operating.

Any thoughts?

Could it be related to the new steering arm? Don’t 2.2s have a steering angle sensor? Maybe the new arm has moved something and confused the system. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS

Seem to have cleared it now.

Took all of the wheel sensors out, cleaned them up and lightly coated with copper grease then put them all back in.

Fingers crossed.

I had the half shafts replaced last Friday and it hasn't been driven since then (except back from the garage) and there was quite a bit of windy gun love took place to get the old half out. Occurred to me that this could have shaken one of the rears a bit. Stu...
