ABS and TC lights on, but no codes stored in ABS ECU? Thats a knack'd ECU.

How did you get it through MOT with ABS light on?

If it sits for more than a minute with a flashing 'waiting for connection', try again. If this repeats, thats common on those post 1998 ABS ECUs.  And I've already said solution. Sorry.

Always worth reseating connector, and removing cover and gently tapping relays, though this method has one ever fixed 1 for me on Nixoro's 2.0.  Nothing to lose...
