Garage Cabinets, Garage Storage, and Garage Organization

Went to customer last night that is having probs with her A140 manual, Y reg (99-2000) where ABS & SRS warning lamps on dash are lighting on & off intermittently. (only done 97k miles).

There appears to be no pattern or duration consistency with these problem warning lamps that go on & off for no valid reason.

Could it be computer or relay faults perhaps?
Bad earth?

And will, or can the ABS lamp prevent car from passing the M.O.T. even though the rolling road test is passed?

Customer woman driver has had car for a few years & has been told by stealers that whole braking system will have to be changed along with air bag(s) totalling a massive £2,000 plus job!
(What a bunch of jokers they are).

Finally, need an indy in the Uckfield area for her, as she last used one in Rottingdean nr Brighton (25 miles away) that cost her over a £1,000 inc a major service that sounds a bit like a rip off to me.

Any help or suggestions gratefully recieved thanks.

Keith.

does the srs light flashes on ignition position 1? if yes, it needs coding. you have to code/parametize the srs control module.

the abs light behaves the same way too? read out the fault code.

without the aid of diagnostic equipment, you cannot do much. you must also know the coding unit number for a certain car.

Many thanks for prompt reply, will try that later when in touch with customer.
Regards,
Keith.
