tmase 19 Report post Posted September 4, 2013 Lost the speedo, ASC and ABS, diagnosed (hopefully) a rear wheel sensor, removed, cleaned and refitted both sensors. Still not fixed, looked into replacing the wheel sensor, so hopefully it's that and not the ABS module. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Meanwhile on Sunday the alternator has packed a sad and stopped charging.... Murphys law at work no doubt I've removed it and shall give it an inspection this afternoon, I get the impression its dirty inside and could work with a clean.
