Hi, I've had my puma for 6 months now but for the last few weeks my ABS/traction control lights have been coming on and going off. Breaks still seemed to be working fine and even got through a MOT but ...... I've also started to notice crunching when I break, I hear it and feel it on the break pedal. Hope someone can help shed some light on this for me

Hi, Could be a sensor playing up.
Not sure if the diagnostics will pick up the fault code as to which wheel sensor it is.
If you have a later Puma with the digital miles odo display, you can bring up the fault codes on it. There is a bit in the site Wiki guide on how to do that.

Hi, I have a 51 plate, a diagnostics has been put on it put nothing came up. Would a dodgy sensor make the brakes crunch?
Thanks for any advice

searching is fruitful | I'm a sponge not a mechanic | please do try that if stuck with a Puma problem whilst waiting for a reply | For the Puma fan this read 'The Inside Story Book' is very nice to own sometimes still seen for sale

Diagnostic may only yield an answer if the light is on at the time the test is run - not sure if the codes are stored.
