When you say that any damage should be visible, I take it you mean we would have to take the half shaft out so that we could actually see the rotator ring? If it was a wiring fault why would the lights only come on when I make a left handed turn? My plan is to take the half shaft out to inspect...

Yes, we have done all that. Even taken the drivers side sensor out and stuck it in the passenger side, still says its a passenger side problem. Could it be a problem with the rotating ring?

57 plate 110, 105000 miles ABS and TC lights started to come on when making a left turn at 40mph+ and then stay on, this has progressed to coming on even when tootling around the town. If you turn the vehicle off and on again the lights go off until you make any left turn. The warning lights...

There was a rusty stain coming from one of the wiper bearings so I had that replaced and the...

I am new to landrover defenders and their decidedly unpredictable ways. Like the way parts just fall off for no apparent reason (ie mud guards) or parts stop working only to start again without warning (radio). They turn, what used to be boring predictable journeys in a volvo (nothing ever went...
