If your car has TC and ABS then the lights should light up on startup...if they dont then chances are the bulbs have blown/been removed...changing the bulbs should be easy...if once changed they both stay lit then with the speedo notworking as well the ABS/TC ECU will need changing or repairing

Hmm... ABS ECU failure would explain why the Tech 2 can't talk to the ABS ECU as well. :-/

Is there anyway to confirm that I have an ABS ECU problem or must I buy a new/used working ECU to find out? I don't mind getting another ABS ECU as long as I am certain it will solve the problem.

fit working lamps for the ABS & TC and go from there. It's possible to get your old ABS ECU repaired in the UK .... obviously no idea about the Philipines  :-/

Agreed. You will also have heavy power steering, cruise control failure, average speed and fuel consumption not working on the MID/TID/GID/CID and the ABS and traction control won't work. (easy check there )

If any of the above are working OK, they have a speed signal from the ABS ECU, so it's not that.

First step is to see if the warning lights come on though.
