-access the CONSULT port, bottom right side of dash behind flip down door.

-ignition OFF

-ground bottom middle terminal using a wire.

-ignition ON

-observe flashes (also beeps) of ABS light

-it will start with '12', (1 long flash then 2 short.)

-it will then flash the fault codes.

-to clear the codes, whilst in this diagnostic mode, disconnect the grounded terminal, then ground it 3 or more times, for at least 2 sec, within 12.5 sec. restart diagnostic mode to check if thwey have been cleared. May take a few attempts before the codes clear.

21 Front right wheel sensor (open circuit)

22 Front right wheel sensor (short - circuit)

25 Front left wheel sensor (open circuit)

26 Front left wheel sensor (short circuit)

31 Rear right wheel sensor (short circuit)

32 Rear left wheel sensor (short circuit)

35 Rear left whel sensor (open circuit)

36 Rear left whell sensor (short circuit)

61 ABS actuator motor and motor relay circuit

63 ABS acutuator relay circuit

64 FR & RR G sensor 1

65 FR & RR G sensor 2

66 FR & RR sensor 1 or 2

68 G sensor voltage

69 Side G sensor voltage

71 ATTESA E_TS PRO/ABS control unit and circuit

72 Throttle position sensor

73,74 E-TS/LSD actuator motor

76,77 Pressure switch

78 Air bleed switch

Hey Mat, welcome to SAU, and to the Stagea section of the forums.

First things first, do a quick search for your problem in this section of the forums, and you should be at least be able to find a link with info for getting ECU codes. Once you do that, see if anything matches what's previously posted. If you can't find any details about what corresponds to the codes given, post the details on here and see if anyone else can help!

yeah ive searched the forums and everything ive tried hasnt worked.

ive tried the consult port and it doesnt stop flashing i counted 102 before i gave up.

i wouldnt think a slight tire differnce would affect the system.

there is a differnce by 2.06% but wouldnt think that would be enough to affect the system??

or am i wrong?

From the million times this has come up on this forum, I'd say stick to the same size rims/tyres for all 4 and you wont have any problems. The ATTESA system apparently doesn't like differing rolling diameter front vs rear OR differing tyre width...it allows enough leeway for uneven tyre wear, but thats about it.

flat(er) tyres also cause the jerkyness and even bald vs new tyres

see if you can throw on some rims from a different car which are all identical

yeah i thought the same thing. ive tried the consult port and i even have a cable but i dont get any fault codes,

the fault clears as soon as i turn the car off, and the light wont come back on untill i drive about 20-30km's

ive noticed a small amount of fluid araound the bottle in the boot so ill drain it and check all the lines and replace the fluid.
