Hey, thanks for your reply. Before the warning lights came on, I hadn't noticed any unusual noises, and there were no other problems. The car has now done 83276 km and the last service was only a few months ago. At first I thought it might be the lateral acceleration sensor because there are problems with the ABS, but I'm not sure. Your info about the faulty ABS control unit helps me though. I'll keep an eye on it and mention it at the next workshop check. Thank you!

No problem, I'm glad I could help! Yes, you should definitely have the ABS control unit checked in the workshop. With my Ford, that was the key to the solution. Your lateral acceleration sensor could of course also be part of the problem, but without a precise diagnosis that's just speculation. The important thing is not to ignore it. These warning lights are there to warn us that something is wrong. Get it checked as soon as possible so that it doesn't get worse and driving safety is guaranteed. Please let us know here what the garage says. Stay safe on the road!

Hey, I'll do that. I'll take all your advice to heart. It seems like you really know your stuff. I'll get the car into the garage as soon as I can and point out the ABS control unit and the lateral acceleration sensor. Thanks again for your help and yes, I'll let you all know how it turns out. Safety first, that's true. Take care and thanks again! It's great to have support like this.

Hey, I once had a similar problem with my 2008 Ford Explorer. I have low experience with cars, but I could tell that there was a problem with the ABS control unit. I took it to the garage and it turned out that the control unit was defective. The repair cost about 1000 euros. It wasn't a simple matter, but it seems that the problem has now been solved. Could you perhaps explain if you noticed any unusual noises or if there were any other problems with the car before the warning lights came on? Any additional information could help to make a more accurate diagnosis.
