I means that the ECU gets a different reading from one of the wheels and considers it slipping, most probably from that n/s front cos that's why it applied brake on it untill it got hot... as i said in post #6 it can be caused by cheap hub which has wrong number of teeth... if tester is available read live sensor inputs while driving on a straight road and you'll see where the signal is bad... and re-read post #6 with attention if possible... untill then remove relay R10 to make it driveable, this way the ABS and TC will be disabled and you'll know that the stored code is for the relay and any other codes can be connected to your problem
 
Hi fellas I'm back again not used disco for a while been using other car . Now I want my disco back on the road so I've bought myself a nanocom and while having a play with it went into slabs then I think it was sns (v) I assume that is sensors both front and n/s rear wheel were at 2.19 and 2.21 can't remember which way round but o/s rear was reading 0.00 while parked on drive .read faults it came up with 06-07 n/s front activated 6 times cleared faults unplugged nanocom plugged it back in and it came back on again without moving car ( don't know if I'm using nanocom right yet still figuring it out) .so to round it up I've fitted new hub and sensor to n/s rear 3 amigos still there (no difference) then it came up with o/s front (not nanocom at this point) so I put the hub off the n/s/r onto the front o/s and used original front sensor 3 amigos fixed but then traction control kicking in and applying brakes to what I thought was n/s front cos that wheel was getting hot so put new hub and sensor on n/s front traction control still kicking in got fed up so parked it up now want it back on the road so that's why I bought nanocom to try and get to the bottom of it
 
There are cheap hubs on the market which have the wrong number of teeth on the reluctor ring(55 instead of 60) or low quality sensor then the input to the ECU at the same speed with the other wheels is different which for the ECU means wheel slip and activates TC...it's common, you have to use quality hubs or replace all 4 with the same brand cheap ones(not the best option) better bite the bullet and use at least OEM
 
I get that I've already replaced 2 I'm looking at the reading from the nanocom am I right in thinking the sns (v) is sensor reading if so it's now showing fault with the only 1 I've not touched yet the other readings were from a generic reader the ones I've just put up are from nanocom but I'm only trying to get to grips with it when I've got my traction control sorted is to get a spare key sorted only got 1 just read my eka code cos I didn't have that either I know I'm changing subject but what frequency key do I need I've read somewhere there's 2 it's an X reg disco 2 td5 uk spec if it makes any difference
