Fault code?
« on: February 01, 2011, 10:08:45 PM »
Hello,

My D2 has the 3 amigos (again!!!) got my local garage to read the fault code on his computer (he's got a Launch? system) its coming up with "rear right ground", ower best guess is a wiring fault?

Any suggestions (other than put a match to it!) ?

Cheers Mike

Sounds like rear right ABS wheel sensor has a fault (short) to earth, i.e. it is measuring zero volts instead of the expected. Visually check the wiring for abrasions, damaged outer sheath. Could also be severe water ingress at connectors. Try disconnecting, mild heat with hair-dryer and reconnecting. Will need another plug-in to clear faults of course!

Excellent, I'll give that a try and check the wiring. But I think I might wait until it drys up a bit!! It's bl**dy heaving down here. ???
