Traction control issue after new shocks fitted

[addsvrs]

So before I get grumpy with my mechanic wanted to check the vast PH knowledge bank for advice

Last week had the rear shocks replaced on my 9-5 Estate. Used all week but only short journeys. Tonight whilst driving had the warning noise go off and 3 warning lights appear on the dash. 1 was the traction control light, didnt catch the what the other ones were before they turned off but T/C one has stayed on.

On getting home did the home mechanic thing of switching the engine off and back on. Yeah its gone.....I am a geni....damn its back on. Looking at the handbook dosent really help so possibly any link between the shocks and the fault ? Obviously without knowing the fault code its a bit vague but any advice welcome. Thanks

Just had the codes scanned and its a steering sensor under the steering wheel, cant remember exactly what is what called. Replacement being ordered. Thanks for reply thou

Typically since having the codes read its not come back on. Will still replace it as its now ordered

First time I have used the car over Xmas / New year was yesterday taking my lad back to his Army base it Tidworth, which for me is a 350 round trip.
Weather was lashing it down the entire way there, stopped on M40 services, on restarting T/C warning light binged back on....and this time he brought his mates, ABS / Handbrake / Stop. Turned on and off and they had gone again. FFS. Re joined motorway, 5 mins later all lights back on....followed by the speedo / rev counter dying. Caused a bit of panic I must admit but car was running fine ? All linked ??
Got to Tidworth an hour later and parked up for a couple of hours before returning home. Everything now back to normal including speedo for the entire trip back ? Odd. Booked in for this week but wasnt the most pleasant trip

yeah it was strange that it was lashing it down the entire way there and i had issues, but on the way back it was fine and the weather was ok
