ABS BAS ESP Lights Issue Check list
Hi,
I have read so many forums regarding this inherited issue of w210 (ABS BAS ESP Lights pop-up). To help precisely and easy to follow steps for any current or future victim, I shall be really grateful if some of us can make a final check-list regarding this issue,
We are talking here about generalized kind of few major possible issues, when ABS|BAS|ESP lights suddenly appear in W210 from 1998-2002 (or any other related models)
Most Possible Issues:
1- ABS|BAS|ESP lights suddenly appear on dash, while driving
a) Lights go OFF, when doing lock to lock steering rotation (full left - full right - center)
b) Or, lights remain ON, when doing lock to lock steering rotation (full left - full right - center)
2- Lights, instantly appear on pressing brake paddle.

Let me re-arrange the list based on your expert inputs:
1- Get your vehicle scanned (if possible), proceed accordingly.
2- Replacing the Brake Switch
3- Confirming correct working of ABS pump's motor (using a stethoscope or hold hand on ABS pump's motor while someone starts the engine)
4- Re-flowing or finally replacing K-40 Relay
5- Confirming correct behavior of all 3 Brake lights

Out Of Control!!
Save your self loads of hours reading HS on the subject without a solution------find some one with the proper HHT|DAS diagnostic tool and he will have an answer in five minutes---then go buy your girlfriend a hot dog!
