When I drove my 2004 landy td5 home yesterday, the TC, ABS and HDC (three amigos) came on suddenly. After I restarted engine at home, they were gone. This happens the first time, any idea of what I should look at?
Thanks in advance!
 
Too less to check visually, eventually the earth points in front of the air box and the modulator's earth plug... if all the 3 amigos are extinguished by ignition recycle in most cases is SVS but can be other things too or if the ABS stays alone untill the vehicle exceeds 7mph it's a sensor related code but tester is still needed to see which side
 
Hi Kaijun, If you put your location in your profile there may be someone near you with a code reader.

I have had the same already a few times. Tester showed SVS fault. It disappears when i restart the engine and does not show up for a few weeks. Last time it happened about half year ago, so i do not care.
 
Thank you for your info. I just wonder if I don't fix it, it would cause any damages or breakdown.

There are a number of things that can cause the "3 amigos", some of which can be left for a little while and others which should be addressed more or less immediately.
Unless you know exactly the cause of the lights it's not easy to answer your question, but bear in mind that these lights are part of a warning system, and indicate the presence of a problem, serious or not quite so serious on the anti-lock braking system.
Ignoring the lights without knowing the cause is a risk only you can decide to take.
 
My amigos came back twice today, each happened in 30 miles drive between home and work. I just wonder if anyone near Reading has code reader, I am willing to pay.
 
Thanks sierrafery. I have tried some but can not figure out answer for “One type of D2 engine is?” for registration. My friend can not too. I don’t think this is an expert question.

it's written there why this question: "This question is a means of preventing automated form submissions by spambots". so you just have to complete the sentence by filling the form with for example Td5 cos that's one type of D2 engine, the other is V8 if you see what i mean so just write Td5 there and it'll be OK
