Title: ABS/TC light on all the time now!
Post by: Owen on 11 July 2007, 22:40:31
Yea, there permantly on now! After starting they dont come on untill I move off though!
All that coming up on paperclip is 19 crank sensor, could this be related? And could it be due to low brake pads?

Hi Owen..read your post..had similar issues with mine recentley..code 19 was crank sensor and for the problems it caused it is worth the effort in replacing it ..it will bring up erratic running which inturn causes tc and autobox warnings to appear as engine revs are incorrect for ecu and drive train..best solution is if reading an error code replace crank sensor..i had secondary issues with tps as well which after spending £70 + at vx dealers  for new one traced problem to wire shorting out on metal bracket for air con pipe..mine now runs fine again so best of luck..excellent how to guide on replacing sensor on forum..be carefull you get the correct sensor though

Could, if you're really, really lucky be you've disturbed a sensor (1 on each front hub, 1 each side of diff = 4 in total).

The other alternative, esp if post 1998 car, is not nice, so we'll try not to think about that for now...
