  1. Hello, When I press the dsc switch, nothing happens, it does not disable the dsc and there are no warnings on the dash and the light does not come on either. Any thoughts???????? Cheers.
  2. Hi John, might be worth a try, can you try before you buy?? As for my problem, I found out today that the abs/pump/ecu has been known to be faulty!! I am hoping that when my mechanic has fixed the wiring we should be okay, but I found a replacement part on the Internet for about £100, keeping my fingers crossed that its only the wiring.
  3. Cheers John for your post, the mechanic did say to me before he started that a weak battery can lead to a fault. With problems like this you have go through all options til you know.
  4. Update time. I have had my mechanic look and the problem so far is that one of the previous owners has had a go at the wiring around the abs unit and bodged it up!!! I have him booked in next week tonfix the wiring as the diagnostics is showing faults all over the abs and he says it hard to pinpoint the problem til then. So far the sensors seem OK, but the worst case scenario at the moment is that I may have to change the abs ecu. Hopefully not, fingers crossed. Update on this to follow.
  5. Okay, update on my problem....cleaned all the sensors and the problem is still there, I then took the battery off to reset the computer and that has not worked either. I think I will have to get a mechanic to look, as she needs an mot.
  6. Cheers Matthew, I had a go last night with one of them, (front nearside) it came out pretty easy (with a little pop) and it looked pretty clean, I am going to wait til tomorrow when I have all day to finish the other three, hopefully that may do the trick. I heard that the rear ones are the ones that seem to be the problem ones, so lets wait and see. I will post an update when I have finished.
  7. Thanks all, I will give them all a try. I forgot to mention earlier that the former owner had driven through a puddle and all the lights came on, so I am hoping that its a simple fix as I need to get her through an mot.
  8. Hi, I have just bought an s type and the abs light is on as well as the dash saying that Dsc unavailable. I have been told that the speed sensors may need cleaning, is this an easy job? Really would appreciate some help folks.
