Hi Folks, new owner of an 02 1.4 petrol which I'm loving to bits.
Just before I bought it from a friend they put a new MOT on and had two of the tyres replaced with part-worns. Ever since then the TCS has kicked in at anything above a whisper of throttle in all gears. Simple enough to reach down and hit the button to disable it but it's bothering me!
I figure during the wheels being off the mechanic knocked the TCS sensor? From what I've seen it's behind the front left wheel so I took that off and found one of the wires with some electrical tape on it and held on with a zip tie!? I'm hoping one of you knowledgeable folks can educate me what this should look like. Has it been bodged and can I repair it?
