R129 ABS & ETS lights

Post by mobill7 »

Hi all
I replaced the ABS unit as I had brakes on three wheels only.
All is now fine braking wise. I now have ABS & ETS lights on.
Cannot reset. Any suggestions?
1994 SL280 96k. All otherwise working well.

Without a code reader, you will have little chance of moving forward. 94 SL280 will be the early pulse (or flashing light) system. There are you tube tutorials on how to get the coded..

Hi John
Built a code reader and read fault codes. I then reset. Started and drove vehicle.
Checked for fault codes - no codes showing.
Lights are however still on.
