Bibs 11,096 Posted November 5, 2020 Report Share Posted November 5, 2020 Hey Fred, welcome to TLF! I believe that you'll have to take it to a Lotus dealer for their diagnostics kit to read ABS codes.

FredH2 0 Posted November 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2020 come on Bibs we are in 2020 there's a lot of cheap diagnostic tools now I just want to know wich one is the best for the 111R Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bibs 11,096 Posted November 5, 2020 Report Share Posted November 5, 2020 A generic tool might be able to give you the code but it has to be one that'll read airbag and ABS codes. A ebay/cheap one will read engine codes only. Your dealer will can plug their machine in and it won't take a minute or cost very much, if at all depending on how well you know them. 1 Quote 88 Esprit NA, 89 Esprit Turbo SE, Evora, Evora S, Evora IPS, Evora S IPS, Evora S IPS SR, Evora 400, Elise S1, Elise S1 111s, Evora GT410 Sport Evora NA For forum issues, please contact the Moderators.

FredH2 0 Posted November 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 Hello Bibs thanks for your answer a quick scan in my dealer will cost around 70 € I will follow the auction on ebay and buy one in this price Regard Fred. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheKevlarKid 579 Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 Have you had the battery off at all? If so disconnect it, leave a while and reconnect it. Turn the ignition on and leave it until all but the engine management light goes off before turning the engine over. Failing that, inspect all 4 plugs at the wheels and the wiring leading to them, there maybe a break in one of the lines. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IanA 10 Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 Usually a broken wire to a wheel bearing speed sensor. Can also occur with change of front to rear diameter of wheels. Occasionally can be displacement of rubber 'O' ring between top and bottom sections of ABS unit, allowing moisture to enter.
