After having a wheel bearing done a couple of months ago, the three lights described above came on. I think we left it about a week before getting seen to. The garage said there were no lights on and they ran diagnostic and nothing came up. Sure enough, when I picked it up, no lights. 2-3 days later, lights come on. Leave it a eek again and take it to same garage. They were looking at a host of other things. They said again there were no lights on, no faults. When they drove it the computer said that one wheel was going slightly slower than the rest so they recommended replacing the ABS sensor and CV joint. Due to them also suggesting a LOT of other work we drove it a bit and the lights came on again and we took to another garage who have now said wait until we see it for 2-3 weeks then take it in. They also could see no lights or faults!
I feel like we’re going crazy. Any advice? Am I doing something really stupid? Only thing I can think is that we park on a hill at our house.
Thanks in advance. |

I would be suspecting a wheel sensor. |

Picked it up from the garage that said they also could see no lights.
They said they drove it 10-15 miles every day but couldn't get it to come on.
I drove it away, and probably 30 miles in, whilst using cruise control at 70 - it came on. And has stayed on. Why does it keep going away when a garage looks at it?!
Note - it's the traction control light, traction control off light, and ABS light. Not brake warning. |

Different tyre sizes across the axles - new tyre on the identified wheel?
The wheel travelling slower will muck up the ABS and traction control and put the lights on.
