E320 ECT/ABS fault

[LYNALL]

Can enybody tell me if there is anything simple i can check before approaching the main dealer (Screen showing ET support,traction and the abs light), i did a full service on the car last weekend incl g/box oils and all filters but i cannot see the connection can you?
If no answer how about a good a good non franchised Merc garage in Kent.

Thank you
Lynall

Hi

You really need the fault codes read. You could try replacing the brake light switch. But I am guessing. Could be an ABS sensor on the blink.

If you did a full service I assume you had the wheels off. You may have knocked an ABS sensor.

Good point i will check sunday but i am sure i did not touch anything, all i did was remove wheels pry pads back slightly grease studs and reassemble.
Oh and now the cruise has packed up.
I will post on sunday if i trace the fault.
PS did i mention its the wifes car ,i drive a Land rover say no more!

Thanks
