ABS and Traction control light


Recommended Posts

Looking for some advice. I think I possibly have an issue with my brake pedal sensor. 
 

Happened twice now when driving iv noticed the car has dropped out of sport mode and the tcs and abs light are on. Pulling over and restarting the car clears this. Probably needs plugged in to a reader but my understanding is this is possibly a Lotus dealer job?

Upgrade today to remove Google ads and support TLF.

Even I managed to change my sensor..... needed a bit of adjustment but been fine now for over a year.

There are other threads about this. Common fault with the V6 cars,

There are few different types available, the origins and of all this SAAB ones from reading are best.

The Book says extend the plunger 5 clicks but 400 was 7.

l so keep a spare in the glove box

I have a spare already in stock, (don't keep in the car though...)  that I have trimmed to fit as the original, as the ones you get need a bit of filing to enable them to be turned 90 degrees in the pedal box fitting.

I found it easier than doing a normal brake pedal switch that I did on my elite many years ago, the problem was getting the right number of clicks to make the sensor happy. (Having filled a bit off.)
