Abs light is likely to be a problem with one of the abs sensors on the hubs, do a search on here its been covered a few times. height lights will flash as car levels itself at startup. SRS .... dunno sounds like a bad/loose connection.

Welcome to the site, you may have to have the faults codes read, but you can start here always a good place to start and hours of worth while reading.

It also helps if you state your location in your "User CP" at the top on at the left, then if theres anyone local to you, they might offer a helping hand.

It's a great piece of kit just to clear faults but it's not so great if you want to know what's going on. Talk to DATATEK and get yourself a disc and lead and you'll truly be in control of the EAS.

The SRS light is normally caused by a loose connection under the seat. There's another very recent thread on this. Funnily enough DATATEK was involved in that as well.

Bloody handy bloke to have on your side.
