Hi all
Could use alittle help/pointing in the right direction.
when i started the car today a fault flashed up on the screen saying "abs fault" and then went. 2 mins later in flashed saying "anti pollution fault" also if there car is in motion an alarm goes of all the time unless the car is stopped. any ideas??
after a quick internet search, some had surgested removing the SH fuse for 30 mins and then re-instaling and locking the car leaving for 30 mins. is this going to cause any damage now? its 15 minutes in atm

Re: Help needed, beeping and faults
If you look on this site I have posted the correct BSI reset process. Bit late if you've already started.
Sounds like your car may have a faulty ABS sensor.

Re: Help needed, beeping and faults
I would have said check the battery, all sorts of faults come up when the battery is dying, but not sure that would explain the "in motion" alarm problem.

Re: Help needed, beeping and faults
Can you tell us a bit more about the car please, e.g. Model, age, mileage, and whether it is used daily or less frequently. Has it ever had a new battery or is it still on the original?
