Morning all,

Had the front hub replaced last week, which obviously means the TC sensor was moved etc.

Everything was fine until yesterday:
Morning
Trip 1 - Diff. lock light flashing on and off
Trip 2 - Diff. lock light flashing on and off and TC and ABS lights on continuously

Afternoon
Trip 1 - Diff. lock light flashing on and off. Taken to garage - no loose wires etc - decide to keep driving it to see what happens

Evening
Trip 1 - Diff. lock lights, TC and ABS lights all on permanantly. For the first time you could feel the diff working as well. Parked up and due to go back to the garage.

Anyone come across this before?
 
Hi,
Just seen this and I think that I may have the same issue.
Diff lock light stays on.
Then the TC and ABS lights come on and stay on with the Diff lock light.
No wiring lose or broken. No unusual noises from below or other instrument lights.
Puzzled as to what to do for the best.

I haven't bought your old vehicle now have I?

Is the CDL actually locked ?
Coz if it is, when u turn the ignition on, is the CDL light is illuminated it will cause the ABS and TC lights to stay on ;)

Just a suggestion, but do you think it might be an idea to give some vehicle details???

Model year/engine type/Gearbox type/mileage etc etc etc

Seriously people come on here asking for help but they don't even help themselves. What are we supposed to do? Guess? Why should we?

If you want help do yourself a favour and give us a chance to help you????

Peeps who know me know I like helping other folks, but just sometimes I really get brassed off with people's stupidity.

The post says in the bottom line...;)
 
Guys,

A real out of the box newbie here, I have a disco II,year 2000, 2.5 diesel TD5 and thats about all I know of her apart fom its a manual gearbox not sure what type.
But to go back to the original part of the post, the Diff lock and TC and ABS lights all being on together.
This is now been resolved thatnks to those helpful posters who suggested to put her in reverse and drive her back 100yds. I switched off the engine after and then back on hey presto no lights stay on and have not since.
Mega thanks as mega pounds saved in garage costs.


Do not chastise those who have come after you for not knowing what to put as until they have been advised of what to put they know not.
