ABS and Stability control warnings on...

[siwebster]

Hi,

Picked up a 2006 330i auto yesterday and got caught in the crap weather on the way home. Got stuck a few times and the only way i could get home was to turn the TC off completely and drive it in manual. I've now got a multitude of warnings - ABS, Driving Stability, Tyre pressure monitors. Do i need to go to a dealer to get these turned off, or does it really need an inspection, or can I do it myself?

Am I likely to have actually broken anything?

Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Switch off, switch back on again, and it should be fine.

It doesn't like to see the rear wheels spinning, and the fronts not moving, so it assumes the front ABS sensors aren't working, so all wheel speed based systems give out warnings.

It might be worth disconnecting the battery for an hour or so to let the systems completely shut down and reset.

Unfortunately I've done so - this happened last night and the warnings are still on now...

Drive it without skidding and it'll reset.
If it doesn't, then something is broken.

Drive it for 10 minutes. This happened to mine years ago when I had it on a rolling road which I presume is a similar effect to that you experienced last night as far as the car is concerned!
