TCS BRAKE ABS light on intermittently

**sic2001** · 08-06-2007, 06:23 AM

3 days ago my gauge lights mentioned began to comeon while Im driving or upon start up. The light goes out if I turn the car off but comes back on later after driving. No new rear end work or mods.

ooo. i just had this happen but i did a (not to sound like a dick) massive burnout and was on the brakes hard, which in turn sent the abs lights a blarin'. that coupled with new pads and no bleeding have really shown me just how much balls i have with no braking power!

have you had any brake work done, because this may have triggered something. the traction control runs concurrently with the 3 channel abs so that is why its coupled together...

hmm im stumped....

any more info you can give??

I had a bad ground wire that cause those 3 lights to come on.

I jut screwed down the battery onto the tray better and that seemed to have fixed it. It was moving around it seems. Ill let ya know if it comes back.
Thanks guys

i've just encountered the same problem... it was after a pretty decent burn out, but i didn't use the brakes... tcs off and abs inop lights came on. they went out after the car sat for about 20 mins... whats the deal?

i have the same problem and have not been able to figure it out.

figured it out, it was the foglamp wire in front of the radiator. There is a connection there that can get corroded. I just cut ot and used a wire connector and BAM no more lights.
