    Just to be different 2 amigos

    I am on holiday at the moment and have had a weird amigos
    . When I have crawled along on a sealed road at under say 8 kms my TC and ABS lights have come on with a ding dong.
    turn off and restart only ABS light on until 8 kms then goes out.
    happened twice and no errors on Nanocom both times.
    i have since driven the old Grafton Glen Innes road which can get really corrugated with TC activating with no further problems.
    Why is it so?
    regards Philip A

    You'll have to let it happen few more times eventually untill you get the ''classic'' 3 amigos and insist to read codes untill you get one cos it's a ABS sensor related code but you'll need to see which wheel... in most cases new hub is needed... i've seen cases when it's intermittent and it occurs for too short time for the ECU to record a code also nanocom can be a bit unreliable in relation with the SLABS and not see a stored code or confuse the sides, happened to me and the truth was revealed by hawkeye which saw the code while nanocom didnt report it and in other case reported rear right sensor while in reality was front left.

    Thanks for that.
    I thought something like that. I suspectLH front because occasionally when braking and turning right into my driveway I got a small vibration seeming from lh front.
    i checked brakes and all OK.
    Hopefully will last 1000 km home.

    Easily if you have a Nanocom and can clear the fault. You can drive many clicks with them on, if needed. I have.
