Hey guys,

Last weekend fitted my pyro gauge in through the passenger side firewall, Picked up ignition power off the radio for my gauge and hooked it all up. Next day the 3 lights were stuck on, quite weird I thought, I checked all the hoses/cable etc near the abs, diff lock etc and found it all to be good. The other night was retracing my work to try and find my problem, one of the wires on the difflock control had a wire spliced into it which i then removed and hooked the wire back up, lights went out.

Yesterday drove it to work got 3/4 of the down there and they came on again

Pulled the small abs fuse out from in cabin and the traction control off light goes out but the other 2 stay on.

Anyone had this issue or can give me any other ideas where to look? Fuses are fine and i did an ecu fault scan with torque and couldn't come up with anything either, very frustrating!

Cheers.

Couple of things can cause this that I know off and it's the brake fuse and the steering wheel being off centre

Gave up tonight, Starting having thoughts what if I had knicked wires going through the firewall etc, pulled the loom out a bit but didn't find anything that would be causing the issue, back to the drawing board! Just weird that it went out then after 40 minutes of driving came back on......

Looked a bit more in the loom and found a couple of wires that were slightly damaged, wrapped them up but the lights stayed on. Took it for a drive today and after 10 minutes or so the abs light went out but the traction control and vdc lights stayed on.

Pulled up and turned off ignition then back on and all 3 lights stayed off :D

Happy days for now hopefully!
