Hi,

For time, my D2 is showing/clearing the 3 amigos by his own.
When I have the car stoped off 3 or 4 days, as soon as I turn car on, 3 amigos are coming. Then, I drive the car for one or two days and the lights are shutdown…
I tried to read the error codes in ECU but it show no error stored… ( I just was able to read the ecu when the car had no ative error on display but it was active in same day but during the travel to my friends house.. lights went off…)

Any hints?

Hi, if a proper D2 compatible diagnostic tool(not some OBD2 device) was used and there are no codes logged after the 3 amigos were on several times then the SLABS ECU is the first suspect, if you dont have access to proper scanner and after the 3 amigos the ABS light doesnt stay on alone untill you exceed 10mph then do the SVS bypass wiring mod(attached) maybe you are lucky to be that cos it's quite common. If the ABS remains on alone then it's a wheel speed sensor signal issue(usually the hub)

***for the bypass that additional connector shown in the doc is not necessary, just connect one wire to ground and the other to the YG wire toward the ECU

I have used nanocom ( 1st gen) to read the error codes.
As I explain, the 3 lights come together is the car is stopped for 3 days and maybe after 2 days the 3 lights are gone. If I drive it every day, no lights are coming …
I’ll take a look to bypass.

Then IMO it's an ECU glitch
