Anti-skid issue

Alexpart · Dec 5th, 2013, 17:13

Hi guys, quick question! Took car to my parents to give it a wash, came home and parked up, no issues! Moved the car next to front door so I could Hoover the inside! When I started it again it says anti-skid temporally off! Yellow exclamation is illuminated and the traction light has appeared! I moved it back into place, turned off and back on, still no joy! It does say dstc is on!
Any ideas?
Cheers

I had this once after I'd been towed by the RAC...

Try disconnecting your battery for 30 mins, see if it resets it. My battery went flat as the car was sat for a while after being recovered, when I started it up it up the message had gone.

If it says this turn it from lock to lock - I have had the same issue with ours either washed damp sensors or parked at angle for a long period.

Alex,

Nothing to worry about at this point. 'AS temp off' message means that it had detected a problem but the problem no longer exists/is detected. After 'xx' amount of restarts the message will just disappear as long as it doesn't change to full 'AS Service Req' message.
