Advice please, lots of warning lights on VXR8

[thewhangie]

Hi people,

Just came home in the car tonight, started it up and on came ABS fault light, traction control turned off warning and the 30 secs later on came engine warning light.

Drove it home, only 1 mile, temp, battery and oil gauges seem fine.

Nothing obvious on looking at the engine, but I am not great with mechanics!

Running well over last few weeks, a few hundred mile runs no problem.

2009 vxr8 with only 31k miles.

I stay in Oban so there's not really a specialist garage on my doorstep.

Anyone else had this?

Any ideas gratefully appreciated, thanks.

Hmmmmm, I have had some problems with the battery, it doesn't do many miles a year.

If it was just a new battery that would be a relief.

Battery charge is 34%, good or replacement needed?

This is the original battery, could probably do with being replaced whatever.

Ok, so I have disconnected and reconnected the battery.

Engine warning light has gone but ABS light remains.

Traction control still off.

I suppose the next step is to get it somewhere to get it plugged in and a fault code diagnosis?

Sorted, was a faulty ABS sensor on the passenger rear wheel.

Not too pricey!

Back on the road.
