what just happened?!

[Twingojoe]

So i was driving along and whilst going round a corner a noise like an alarmbor ringtone went off in the car and a red lights on the display for a couple of secs...wtf happened?

Not the tcs before someone says! It was on the displqy but didnt do it for long enough

Did it say stop? Just needs a top up of the brake fluid by the sounds

That alarm also sounds if you leave your handbrake on just a tiny bit.

Looking at the dash now i think it was makes sense too as i was cornering hard lol could it be anything else though?

 

[Twingojoe]

And now the spanners and abs light has come on ffs!
Never had abs before and now i know why

 

[singlespeed]

Have you checked the fluid level in the brake reservoir?

[jra3d]

Low brake pads can cause that too

 

[Twingojoe]

Pads and fluid are fine...odd

 

[tommy89]

Dodgy set of sensors? Other than taking it to renault I'm at a bit of a loss.

 

[maggi200]

Sure the fluid is fine? There's such a fine line between correct level and just below where it sets it off

I had this problem a few months ago, when you go round a corner sharply everything on the dash screams at you to stop, as maggi said the line is so fine between good level and under it. I wouldn't worry just top it up and you'll be fine iv had no problems since then.

Fluid will look fine drop a wee bit in and it will sort it out. It's just balancing on the mark mine done it and looked fine till I dropped a little bit of fluid in

 

[maggi200]

LOL :lol:

It's not a joke! I expect a sandwich when I arrive tomorrow
