If HDC is working i'd imagine your ABS is working, are you sure it's not just the dashboard lamp that blown? When you first put your key in and turn one 'click' do all the lights come on?

light still not workin. tried it in HDC again today, horrible scrapin noise!!.flick switch off, no noise... ****in fing. booked in garage fer next week, hope warranty covers it .......

 

[george99]

Is it a metal on metal noise and does it only happen in HDC mode or do you get a similar noise when under normal braking? May sound basic but have you checked your brake pads/shoes to see if thier down to the metal?

 

[ste220]

i get that sort of noise with my hdc, but not with normal braking????????

 

[aussielander]

its normal, sound of the valves working

 

[george99]

Agree with aussie, when the HDC operates the brake pads are continuously applied and released very quickly make a sort pulsing springy sound, this will be different from a metal scraping sound. If you only get the noise with HDC and it works OK then I'd say it was the normal noise of the valves.
