Zafira Tourer - Service ESP

[tunnie]

I doubt that a modern vehicle will have abs rings,most are active sensor bearings nowadays,hopefully some live data will help. Generally  speaking if the light goes off at start up it means self test on sensors was good,if it comes on once underway it points to the bearing/abs ring or whatever its taking its readings from

It complains as soon as ignition is on, before engine running/wheels rolling.

Distinct lack of decent resources online, really puts me off older more modern cars. 

Software that cannot be named, should arrive Friday. If no joy with that, might have to go to the dealer.

Hope better software will give me fault, most common online aspect suggests sensor going to wheel hub.

Same fault I have, but he can get a code, indicating which side is at fault.

The fact that the light is on from start up does point to a sensor fault, what are you trying to rear codes with ?

Tried my Autel 319, which has done 3.2 fine. It also reads live data from Zaf fine.

Also tried ScanMyOpel, via an Android phone and bluetooth adaptor.

Worked a treat on the BMW, and have their computer based gubbins for older Mercedes 

Expected that to be a link to a dealer servicing offer

That's what I use on my Merc & Smarts .... works well (though there is a MBII now which does a little more)

No fault codes stored, according to my code reader. 

(Autel 319)

Generic OBDII reader is only for drivetrain, nothing else

That explains it, software that cannot be named, should arrive tomorrow. 

[tunnie]

Grrr. So the software that cannot be named can't read ABS module either. 

Guess I need to splash some cash and get serious code reader like this:
