ABS and Traction control light

Post by Ryancotterill »

My scirocco has failed its MOT as both of these lights have come on my dash
That car had been sat over winter But started every other day.
I just changed the alloys from 18" to 19"

Any help ?

You need to get it scanned to confirm but I suspect one of the wheel speed sensors has been disturbed, possibly when changing the wheels over.

I don't know off the top of my head but get it scanned first and then take it from there...
