Traction Control Flashing every so often - why ?

(1/2) > >>

Rich:
My traction control light keeps flashing every 5 mins or so ?  ( yellow light with car skids icon )

There is a slight shudder when it flashes with the car... the brakes work fine... im trying to fatherm out why its doing this...



Hope not an expensive fix... considering taking it to the stealers... anyone what this might be ?



Really worried in some case :scared:

Top Cat:
Are you driving to fast.  :laugh:


I seem to remember some one having this and it was the ABS sensor. but i could be talking pooh!.  :smiley:

JPC:
it could be the abs sensor. not been on a rolling road recently have you?

Rich:
Hmmm... nope...

ABS sensors an expensive fix ??


Im just driving normally and its like something is touching the brakes every so often... e.g automatic system brake checking itself

Top Cat:
Yep that is sounding like the ABS sensor. it may have just moved or been knocked have you had the wheel off.  :smiley:
