Brake,ABS, DSC lights on

[LI-X5]

the proper answer is start car , turn wheel all the left , then all the way right and all the way to the left again and they should reset !!

or now that i think about it it maybe rt then left try both combo's , one will def work , i've done it myself !!

Its the steering sensor. i have the exact same problem. I had my pads, rotors replaced and then the error lights came on. The shop diagnosed it as the steering sensor...

My brake and ABS lights are yellow. I did notice the red lights went off. I did not know about the steering wheel sensor. Did you have yours replaced? I still have the darn "Self Leveling suspension light" on. I did have to have my vehicle jumped about a month ago. I thought maybe that caused the problems. THis is very frustrating. 78K miles, I know have clunking in the front. From theis forumn, it might be stabilizer sway bar links or Control Arms. What next.

I had the same thing ... it's the ABS sensor (wheel rotation sensor). If you have a code reader it will tell you which one it is (mine was in the back). There is a way to test it but I can't remember which is which ... I believe the rear left one will work with the "cruise control" (but check around if it's left or right). If that's not working, there's your problem. If it is working than it is one of the other wheel sensor.
As far as I know, yellow brake light + ABS light means wheel (ABS) sensor. Red brake light means change brake pads.

I had the X5 running and turned the wheels to the left and then the right and then the lights went off.....she's been fine...so far.

for the past month, i had those 3 lights lit up for at least 20 times, i just reset them and they are gone, after few days or sometimes just a day they are back, especially when its cold..

yesterday, i brought her in to the dealer, got a call from the SA just right now, hes saying its the transfer case fluid? and not the sensors?

I had the exact same problem too, but after all the monkeying around with various 'fixes' people have devised that DIDN'T work, I decided to get a download done and the code pointed at the steering angle sensor. Got a new one (actually I took a gamble and paid £20 from a scrappy ), fitted it in under 30 mins, then took the car to an indy to get the steering angle sensor talking with the DSC again... 20 mins later and the lights have stayed off ever since.

Job done

After replacing battery on my 2002 tonight I got the CEL, Brake and ABS lights. This worked for me.

Viva LI!!!
