Default BRAKE question...


Anyone know what’s going on here? I just installed my 2in lift kit and about 5 miles in I got these warnings. Nothing seemed off I pulled over turned off and on the rover and it went away. I tried hitting the breaks hard a couple times and everything is fine. Stumped.

your first course of action should be to read any abs codes, rather than posting here with almost no information to go on.
those are commonly known as the "four amigos" though. much less common than the three amigos, but reading the abs codes is still the starting point for diagnosis.

I’ll hook up my reader but the warning lights are gone... so I’ll see if anything reads, if not I guess I’ll just wait to see if it pops up again.

Just search here or on a search engine for "Three Amigos." Ignore search engine results about the movie. You'll find more than enough about the ABS, Traction Control and Hill Descent Control lights.

No. Not at all. Barring something else being wrong, it just means that you don't have anti-lock brakes, just like every car up until the mid-'80s or so. Many forum members go for years with the Three Amigos on.

I'm guessing you disturbed a sensor wire while working on the suspension
