Car runs fine but I have all these lights on at once. I bought the car like this. Can anyone tell me what to look for?

 

How new is the battery?

 

Scan the OBD with a suitable scanner that can ascertain the abs system - there should be a CXXXX code dealing with the DSC/ABS system.

 

battery was put in yesterday and still getting all the dummy lights. I just bought the car so trying to find out whats goin on. Where can i get a scanner from?

 

Autozone will read them for free...then just get the printout and bring the codes here

 

Autozone can not read ABS codes. You need a Jag specific code reader for that. Dealers and foreign car specialty shops are your best bet. The following reference will help you diagnose the problem, which is often to repair the ABS module.

+1 to RJ237 - Autozone or any big box auto retailer's OBD scanner will not read any ABS codes...

 

BUT- if he can get the regular codes scanned and eliminate those, he can then isolate what is causing the ABS fault (wheel sensors, ABS module board etc)

 

thanks when I get it over to the shop to have new tires and shocks done, I'll have them read the codes and then get those out the way. ive seen threads on the abs issues with wheel sensors. This car sat for 2 years with a bad fuel pump so they prob need cleaning.

 

If, when they read the codes, one of them indicates ABS pump circuit failure, it will be due to solder joint in ABS module. Plenty of DIY info on this board. The wheel sensors might be dirty, but not likely from sitting. A bad connecting cable is also a possibility. The reference to Jagrepair that I mentioned previously should help.

Autozone is beginning to replace their scanners with ones capable of reading ABS codes. I recently asked if they had a loaner scanner that could read ABS and Shelinda (77586) told me the new scanners could read ABS and we did an ABS scan and it indeed showed ABS codes.
Took my other car in to be scanned a few days later and the guy told me the scanners could not do ABS scans even though I already had one done with the same scanner. I guess that is the difference between those that care and those who do not.
Most shops price their ABS scans at $49 so it is a big savings.
