little num Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 right there is lots about the triangle but nothing for what makes mine come on, drive the car for 1000 miles and no triangle soon as you turn the lights on bang on comes the triangle any idea's.

Homer Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Any error code James? Most common for this is brake fluid level, the sensor is extremely sensitive, top it up to very slightly above the max mark (0.5mm should be enough) and see it it continues. If it's only happening with the lights then a miss wire is likely, do you have facelift indicators fitted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev.O Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Would it be a blown bulb? I know there's a separate 'bulb blown' light, but maybe that one isn't working also? Does the warning triangle go off as soon as you switch the lights off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little num Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 Homer ive checked the brake fluid, as i had that problem about a month ago for some reason as well when the brake fluid is low it turns the abs off lol. The triangle stay lit until the ignition is turned off, im going to take all the steering columb out today to see if there maybe a wire shorting or somthing as i stil have some little play in the wheel thats iritating the shit out of me.

ellis Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 If it's when the lights are on I'd say something as simple as a blown bulb. Get somebody to look as you do brake lights, side lights, indicators etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveR Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Are all your warning lights along the little strips to each wide of the main instrument panel present & correct James? (Do the check with the car off and when you turn the key to the 2nd 'click'). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
