BAS,ESP & ABS light illuminates at speeds over 30km/h.

Hi,

I just had both my front airmatic struts replaced by the local Carlsson dealer and once I got the car back and I'm driving faster than 30km/h the BAS,ESP and ABS light illuminates.

I tried to disconnect the battery, connect it back, start the car, (BAS,ESP & ABS illuminates as expected), turn steering wheel to the right and to the left and back to the middle and all errors disappear. Everything is ok until I reach 30km/h, then these lights illuminate again...

I'm suspecting that the workshop damaged some sensors in the front during the strut replacement, anybody experienced something similar?

Best regards,

Margus

r 320cdi
yeah i can help

you may have a defectine wheel speed sensor or it is not connected. if you are familiar with a multimeter you can attach it to the connector and spin the wheel on low amp setting and see if it measures, and further do a resistance check, if you get no reading then it is probably faulty, id check the back ones too.

better check the wheel sensors, it will drive you crazy. it would help if you had CarSoft or access to Star, to help narrow the problem down.

BAS, ESP, Shifter stuck in parking. Help

Hi all,

I have 2001 S500 with 95k miles. After having the car praked in the garage from work, I tried to start the car and noticed that BAS/ESP light came on and the shifter knob is stuck in Parking. I cant drive it becaue the shifter wont come out of parking. So now I have the BAS, ESP lights on and cant drive it because the shifter is stuck in parking. Ive read a lot of comments about how common this problem is and how easy it is do it yourself. I need some directions.
Does anyone know whats going on or what the problem is? Please help!
Thanks,
