The wierdest thing just happened...

I was just sitting outside my girlfriends house when I noticed that my Overdrive and Slip Contol lights were flashing repetitively.

 

It stopped when I switched the ignition on and off, but anyone had this before? It was rather worrying. I snapped a video incase it was more serious and didnt go away.

 

I stupidly had my music playing in the video and it looks like they just fancied a dance!:rolleyes:

(by the way this is not a joke, it really happened on its own, madness)

hmmm seems to be happening more and more. But I was the pioneer of this problem :D

 

check your error codes, then change you gearbox fluid. also, on the side of the gearbox theres a sensor, remove it and clean it. looking from the front, its on the right hand side of the box. that should do it. its basically the traction control system not getting a clean signal - poss due to dirt in the oil and on the sensor.

 

hope that helps :)

Well it was just a one off, think as you say it must have been a dirty sensor or something...

 

I was listening to the Prodigy dirtchamber sessions, hadn't listened to it in ages - thoroughly recommend :D
