"Electronic Stability Control System" & flashing "Malfunction indicator light" - irishastraowner - 26:th-Mar-2019 When driving last night i got the "electronic stability control & traction system" symbol when is staying constant. Today it appeared again AND a flashing "malfunction indicator light" also appeared. The cars power was restricted. Its a 2012 1.4 petrol. The car is misfiring a small bit. Can anyone advise the problem? RE: "Electronic Stability Control System" & flashing "Malfunction indicator light" - Rusty2009 - 27:th-Mar-2019 It could be anything it's best getting it plugged in and fault codes read then go from there.

Gone in today. I have been advised it is possibly the coil pack therefore i would require: -new coil pack and related plug(spark) Anyone take a stab at roughly what they would think it will cost me for parts & labour? Additionally could this have been prevented in any way OR is it just a "wear and tear" part? RE: "Electronic Stability Control System" & flashing "Malfunction indicator light" - Rusty2009 - 29:th-Mar-2019 I'm confused how you've been advised possibly coil pack for stability & traction control. Coil packs are a very common thing to fail tho tbh.

New coil pack & four new spark plugs & labour =€350 RE: "Electronic Stability Control System" & flashing "Malfunction indicator light" - Jpbroad1970 - 3:rd-Apr-2019 I would have said abs sensor or the pulse ring not coil pack. If it were me I would have tried that first but as rusty said plug in on proper diagnosis tool for fault codes. |
