Angry engine/abs/traction/asc - problems

2001 Jag X308

ABS / TRACTION / ASC WARNING LIGHTS

What next ? - Any suggestions appreciated

Have replace all 4 wheel sensors - Electrical cables look good
Removed ABS module
Re soldered 2 connections - which didn’t look dry jointed
Some rust evident between module and pump - face of pump body - it cleaned off easily
Pump seems to be working - noise when doing start up check
Pressure bled brakes - is there any indication that ABS is working ?
Started car still have all warning lights on - brakes seem to work okay and car drives changes gear and stops fine.
What now - change the complete ABS module and pump or change the wheel relucter wheels
Or scrap the car - loved the xj6 series 3 and xjs

I suggest having the ABS codes read with dealer level software before throwing more money at part replacement.

Thanks took your advice - had diagnostic done by Halfords workshop
They found fault on sensor lead and repaired it - car passed MOT.
Great service - MOT test £35.00 + Diagnostic £35.00
Worth trying much cheaper than Jaguar Dealer
Thanks for your help
