    ABS /Traction control

    Hi Guys.
    Today in just driving around town in my 2008 defender the traction control and ABS lights came on. What sort of problem could this indicate or what should i do to reset these. Any help would be appreciated.
    Regards

    Eck

    Had the same issue

    Hey Eck,

    I had this same problem in mine, had it in a couple of time as both lights would come on randomly. They checked all connections between the wheels and computer to no avail. Eventually I narrowed it to the rear drivers side, I traced the cable and found it had broken free of a cable tie next to the hand brake drum and it had rubbed through and was causing a short. Cut and soldered the wires problem solved. Not sure about anything it could be though.
    Cheers Lucas.

    I had a similar issue on an 07 defender and found it to be the earth cable for the abs/traction control that attaches to the gearbox was loose.
