ABS / Traction Control Issue

Pulling my hair out now.

Did some work on the car this week to fit an Alpine subwoofer and the uprated steering arms. During the process I had the battery disconnected for a few hours and the car has been parked for a week.

Put everything back and went for a drive this morning, ABS & TC lights were illuminated. Pulled fuse 8 and reset everything before going for another drive and now the lights are gone but the TC is operating all of the time. Have disconnected the battery for a reset but still got the TC operating.

Any thoughts?

Could it be related to the new steering arm? Don’t 2.2s have a steering angle sensor? Maybe the new arm has moved something and confused the system. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS

Steering angle was very late 14 / 15 MY

Seem to have cleared it now.

Took all of the wheel sensors out, cleaned them up and lightly coated with copper grease then put them all back in.

Fingers crossed.

I had the half shafts replaced last Friday and it hasn't been driven since then (except back from the garage) and there was quite a bit of windy gun love took place to get the old half out. Occurred to me that this could have shaken one of the rears a bit. Stu...
