Re: ABS Light + Handbrake Light Flashing

Yup checked the internal fuses.

I watched him do the work, he basically rewired the aftermarket harness and never messed with the actual wiring!!

Re: ABS Light + Handbrake Light Flashing

Alex, I tried what you said and it didn't work! Any other ideas. I'm thinking this could be related to my new Headunit. I fitted a new Headunit and speakers, when I cranked up the volume on the speakers the speakers would crackle and pop and then the HU would cut out. I went to a local fitter and he...

Re: ABS Light + Handbrake Light Flashing

Alex how did you solve your problem, simply by sanding the fuses ontop of the battery? Surely it can't be that simple!

Re: ABS Light + Handbrake Light Flashing

What he said... Plus... check your brake fluid level... Does the handbrake lever change the handbrake warning light when you raise/lower it.. IE.. is the handbrake switch functioning ok? Where abouts are you located?...(perhaps put a location in your signature!!!) handbrake light does not change. K...
