3 Amigos - Potential Solution

Hi - I have been suffering intermittant 3 Amigos (TC, ABS and Handbrake Light) fault for the last 3 months - I spent a while researching and fiddling to see if I could solve - including checking all the wheel sensors.

I eventually scanned the car and it was showing an ABS Earth fault.

I cleaned 3 of the earth straps:

1) one behind the coolant resevior (under the bonnet) - this is where the ABS module is earthed to
2) one behind the drivers side front wheel (in the wheel arch) - i undid the bolt and cleaned it up using some wire wool/sand paper.
3) one bolted to the chassis under the car (directly below the passenger front seat) again using wire wool/sandpaper.

This solved the problem for me - a quick 30 mins fix....
