Title: TC issue
Post by: cwill144 on 15 December 2019, 11:59:36

After finally finishing my engine change and fitting all new brakes & suspension, was finishing getting the car ready for the mot. Haven’t driven it yet but before I put the wheels back on thought I would test the clutch with it on axle stands (manual) all works fine but TC light comes on when in gear, and keeps putting brakes on switch TC and drives wheels fine.
I fitted new brake lines and bleed system, I assume it is a sensor but have checked all connections and seems fine? Any idea how to find the problem sensor or could it be something else?

Traction control and abs will come on if only 2 wheels (the rears)  are moving,2 fronts are not moving on axle stands  surely  :-\

It potentially could be a confused state now, so recalibrate it when its back on the road. Basically, drive it around for 2 or 3 miles, speeding up to 50mph and slowing down (without the brakes) to near nothing repeatedly.
