Bong, Bong, Bong......

Here's a strange one. I got engine management fault, HDC inactive, Parking brake Inactive and Transmission fault ( limited gears).
I thought it was a weak battery but have now ruled that out. Around 5 seconds after starting all these faults appear. However, if I start up and just go the faults don't appear until the first time I have to stop. ( for more than a few seconds) I'm thinking maybe an ABS sensor fault.!!! The yellow symbol for that lights up too.
Any ideas appreciated. 2007 Vogue TDV8 in Zermatt Silver with Charcoal

Think you have answered your own question. Check the ABS sensors and the reluctor rings for physical condition and positioning. .

Thanks Joe.
Holiday chicken, I can plug it in but the car battery is below 12.5v so the diagnostics wont let me play. Its charging up at the moment. I've also noticed the front right skid slightly a few times lately when braking which led me to thinking an ABS fault. Just wanted to throw it out "there" for the input of the wealth of knowledge we enjoy.

A low battery in my own experience can throw up all sorts of false alarms. have you tried turning steering wheel lock to lock to clear the yellow triangle warning

Yeah, tried the steering lock to lock, battery reset, charging the battery. Pretty sure its an ABS fault on the front right now. Sensor or Reluctor ring. Just haven't had a chance to look yet.
Brought the other FFRR out to play for a few weeks so its all good. 2007 Vogue TDV8 in Zermatt Silver with Charcoal
