Title: TC Light has come on along with engine electronics light
Post by: PAUL1975 on 12 November 2011, 10:19:00: Hi Guys,

Another problem with my 2.6 V6 CDX 2003, lol, Started the car this morning and have noticed the TC light and engine electronics light have come on together and are staying on no matter how many times I turn ignition on or off. Car is driving in limp mode and very sluggish. On way home from work last night car was fine with no warning lights???

Any idea guys why the lights have come on today or what could be wrong??

Thanks as always in advance for all the help.

Paul

Post by: PAUL1975 on 12 November 2011, 23:34:10: Getting concerned that this may be leading to something serious? Hope it's not an ECU fault........

Anybody had this happen on thier car and what was the problem? Just not sure what's causing both lights to come at same time and stay on...

Will get the codes read asap by somebody.

Cheers Guys

Post by: albitz on 12 November 2011, 23:38:27: Follow the link above provided by Tunnie and read them yourself. TC light accompanied by ABS light and speedo not working is fairly common. Caused by ABS ECU dying.Yours however sounds different to that. Have a go at reading the codes and then post up the info for more help. :y

Post by: PAUL1975 on 13 November 2011, 17:20:17: Strange thing happened today, started the car up and no signs of either lights???
Just give the car a good run and it's driving fine with no TC or engine electronic light showing.......... Any idea why it have cleared itself or could it possibly re-appear??
If it does then I will get the fault codes...

Cheers.
