"Braking fault"

[Steve Barrett]

Pulling into my driveway earlier the warning "braking fault" plus the symbols "spanner, STOP, ESP, and ABS" are all lit up, the only thing I've chevked is the brake fluid level which is ok.

anyone else had this?

cheers

only had this when my brake fluid level was low..strange..

Just been out there again, the handbrake light is also on when the handbrakes off.... Getting her "plugged" in for a diagnostic mon/tues so fingers crossed its nothing too serious.

As with Pav, I have only had this with low brake fluid.

That has to be the brake sensor which is faulty, it will probably need replacement.

I've got a new brake pedal switch to fit tonight, I'm also going to check/test the fluid level sensor

Fixed it....

removed and cleaned abs sensors.
fitted new brake light switch
put about 30-40ml of brake fluid in (now over max)

Drove 200m and everything went off so unsure which bit sorted it and tbh I don't care lol
