ABS and Traction control light on

[BullDogSix]

I have the ever popular ABS/traction control warning lights on and can't seem to get rid of them...they appeared after the vehicle sat for a month or so due to maintenance...never had a problem before.

I have pulled the ABS code and and it says it's the front, left sensor air gap. So I reset the sensor...still have the light. Checked and cleaned all ABS sensor electrical connections...still have the light.

Is it possibly a relay or a ground? I am leaning towards a ground because the other day the ABS light and traction light went out and then came back after a little off camber driving.

Where should I start looking for possible ground issues besides the obvious BAT/ALT areas?

Thanks.

I have the same issue an error (2-14). Resetting the senor gave me 2 weeks without lights but now I have the same issue.

What solution did you find.

I think it may be the swivel or the stub axle bearings.

Solved! It ended up being a bad sensor. So...I went down to the local junkyard...but of course there were no Range Rovers (there never are)...but there were 3 or 4 Series 1 Discos. So I found one with a good set of sensors (front and rear) and carefuly pulled them from the axels. Took them all home for $25...nice! Pulled the RR's sensor and unbundled it from the pad wear sensor wiring loom, replaced it with the D1 sensor...and viola!...ABS light and TC light gone! I also cleaned up the pad wear sensor ground while I was there as I was getting an intermittent light on it too. So Disco 1 sensors work a Range Rover Classic (as I suspected they would), just takes a little more work to pull it out of the wire loom...and all for a lot less than new ones!

Good Luck!

I have the same issue with my ABC/TC lights. Any chance you can post a pic of the sensors. I've read the posts about tapping them down to reset them but I'm not sure what I'm looking for, and maybe I have been hitting the wrong thing? Yeah i know- Im just a rookie lol

Thanks

Many parts of the D1 are interchangeable with the RRC LWB. The only difference I've seen are the body panels. Same engine, trans, axles, gear box...
