A little while back when I first got this car I noticed the Abs/Tracs light was on, so I thought I'd obtain another Controller and swap it. Did this and the lights went out(hooray), a few weeks later(car hasnt been used) the lights came back on.
After lots of head scratching I decided to take it in to get the codes read, they told me that the right rear sensor was out but that it could just be the controller thats up the duff!.
After a long hard think yesterday I decided to bite the bullet and have a look at the sensor, having removed and cleaned up both rear sensors...nothing, lights still on.
Ok, todays finall rethink. Went out and looked for the connection inside the car for both rear sensors, after removing the boot floor I found it on the right handside above the fuel pump cover. Unplugged the connector and reconnected a few times, took the car for a drive and......Fingers crossed, no lights(as yet). I've stopped and re started the car a few times now and its still ok, usually by now the intermitant nature of the Abs would have brought the lights back on. just hoping and praying they stay out now.
Failing this its going to have to go to the dealers to be diagnosed.
