51 TD5 ES Warning lights in binnacle coming on for no apparent reason!
Came to a halt at junction and following warning lights came on:
ABS; TC; handbrake; Hill descent and they wont go off even when turning off electrics and restarting. Been driving like it for a couple of days.
Anyone got any ideas other than book it into main dealer for diagnostic check?
 
Don't take it to a dealer to have it checked and cleared, they won't reset the lights unless you throw parts at it, it is a liaibility issue for them. Go find an independent shop that will work with you

drive down your street, when no one is behind you !!, hit the brakes pretty hard, if you feel the brake pedal pulsate, you know the ABS is working. If it doesn't pulsate, then it is safe to say you may have a ABS issue

When u say handbrake du u mean the left top middle warnig lamp?......if yes that's not the handbrake lamp only(even if it comes on when handbrake is pulled) that lamp is a brake system warning lamp.......did u check the brake fluid level lately? this lamp comes on when fluid is low. Its quite common that this warning used to "drag" the 3 amigos with it. This four lamps together are telling u that there is a fault in the brake system.
There are many possibilities but the recognised ones by the ECU are in the table below (concentrate on those with the 4 lamps on)
This one is not a simple 3 aigos issue so u better scan it first to see the fault code
