My 2010 XR50T Ute

I think you're on the right track with the theory that it's a sensor... no codes?

[OZYWALKER]

Well xcals are pretty sh*t at codes.

[k31th]

better than a house-brick

 

but still, personally, I'd be going to my tuner to ask to dyno-log it, without a code scanner or code results. Seems like you've gone the obvious physical route already with the ABS sensors.

[OZYWALKER]

Probably should.
Got the front sensors on the way which I'll do with new front hubs when I get the bushes done later this month.
Just hoping it's not the diff already, didn't want to go 9" this soon.

[k31th]

if it was the diff, you'd probably hear it whining .

[OZYWALKER]

The diff sounds pretty messed up, crunches bad on deceleration when engine braking, really not happy with the trutrack.

 

Pulled the cover off it last week and pulled the centre out. Gears are fine nothing out of the ordinary and no metal at all in the oil but it really sounds horrible on deceleration.

Really bad option for a manual in my opinion.

[k31th]

yeah, well, if you pulled it apart, it's probably operating perfectly, for what it actually is... just a shame that as a product, it's no good.

 

Doesn't sound like any of that is related to your DSC problem. Somebody with more FG expertise might be able to give you more information before you go back to a tuner, though.

theres something sexy about big brakes

Had the exact same faults come up randomly in traffic on Sat night. Ign off then on again, gone.

Assuming the brake switch is gonna crap itself soon. has happened to me in the past.

I know you said its fine but maybe the vibration sets it off randomly.

[El Andrew]

Are you definite on the brake light switch? My FG was doing the same - took somewhere between 2 and 20 mins of driving to set it off. Ended up driving it at night until I triggered it, so I could see what the brake lights were doing by reflecting off street signs.

Once the lights started to go MIA, the fault appeared shortly after.
