Amber warnings

Post by rickster147 » Wed Sep 21, 2016 10:49 am

Sometimes when I start the car first thing in a morning
I get traction control light and abs light on amber but if I turn ignition off then restart the car they go away
Any ideas??

It's only normal for the lights to light up while starting but then turn off again by themselves. If you have to turn the ignition off then on again to get rid of them then there is something wrong. If you have VCDS then run a scan; if the fault lights cone on it will normally log an error.

yes sorry Mike is right, I missed the bit about having to turn off the ignition and back on again
