abs/traction control lights

Postby chris the chippie » Wed Feb 18, 2015 7:52 am

I have a 2.2 t3oo ex aa transit and the abs/traction control lights on the dash keep staying on. no paroblems driving until they go out and then when the brake pedal is depressed it judders quite severely. we have checked all the sensors but no joy. any ideas would be good. cheers chris :(

Thanks for that, but it judders if you hardly touch it.doesn,t do it when abs light is on .lights now come on and off as they please. :( Had new ford rear drums fitted last year so don,t expect its down to them.

Hey Chris!

I have that exact same problem on my van. Did you ever find out what the problem was? :?:

Thread is 11 years old... "Chris" hasn't been on here since Feb of 2015, so we'll never know what his issue was.

Best you start a new thread with your issue...new posts get lost in very old threads.
