    ABS brake malfunction - traction/stability control failure warning lights

    Good evening guys,

    Hoping someone can help or has got an idea whats wrong with my Saab!

    Its a 2006 93 estate vector sport - it came up with a number of warning information today.

    - ABS brake malfunction (orange light on dashboard too)

    - Stability control failure

    - Traction control failure

    Also an icon on the dashboard with a orange triangle with a car skidding in between (for the traction&stability)

    Any information is appreciated, thank you.

    Simon

    Knowing the captured error code would would save a considerable amount of troubleshooting time and without any code the best suggestion I can offer is to check the rear ABS sensor wires. These things do tend to brake within a couple of inches of the wire ties near the rear wheels and are easily repaired without pricey parts replacement.

    Maybe you could tell others how you resolved this issue, maybe details of which wires were corroded? Thanks
