The traction control and abs works as one, check the air pressure in your tires

SOURCE: 2003 Prius: High pitched noise, ABS & BRAKE Lights on

Check your brake pads first,as they have a wear warning clip on them.so if you hear a loud screaming noise.Then its quite possible they have worn causing ur warning lights to come on.And i would get anouther quote as that is quite dear for a pump replacement.If it is the pump.good luck pippall!!

SOURCE: 2005 toyota prius abs brake not working warning

Hmm, I'm not sure what a main chip is but, there is a few reasons for this problem.

  1. ABS Sensors - there could be something wrong with a sensor and/or the wiring to them
  2. The wheel bearing speed sensor in a wheel is bad or intermittent which then tells the computer that wheel is traveling at a faster or slower rate of speed then the rest which in then the computer turns the abs light on.
Now when your warning lights go on, the computer sets a DTC code which is the key to helping solve this problem. If you can get the DTC (Data Trouble Code) from the dealership or from someone who can scan your can, I can better assist you in figuring out what's wrong. Hope this helps.

hows your battery?,for the engine, not the electric motor,Prius,normally dont have any quirky issues with electrics,and behave normally if the car batery is flat,ie...it will behave like any other car if the normal battery is flat or old,check by jumping,(fuse box under hood has terminal for + and put neg(black) on suspension bolt ) 3 each strut top.That should work to see if thats your problem

SOURCE: my 2004 prius abs and brake light came on and the

well, a hard firm pedal, usually indicates a bad brake booster or a vacuum leak to booster or the vacuum check valve, on booster. TO TEST BRAKE BOOSTER; pump brakes several times with engine off to deplete stored vacuum. turn on engine with pushing slightly on pedal. you should feel the pedal fade away a bit and then become firm, but not hard. if you feel nothing at the pedal when engine starts the booster is at fault. good-luck !!

SOURCE: check hybrid system light came on on a 2010 prius.

It's a year old. Take it to the dealer immediately and have it repaired under warrantee. Don't wait too long or they might say further damage was caused because you didn't get it looked at immediately.

What do the codes 7EA and 7E8 on a 2013 chevy captiva?

These are not trouble codes, instead they direct you to components that need to be looked at. Basically, the control module menus and both codes represent something. The 7e8 represents the engine powertrain, while the 7e9 represents the transmission powertrain.

Why does the traction control light turn on and stay on when I start the engine?

traction control and abs units both use the same wheel sensors
check for problem wires
run the fault codes to check for other areas and faults.

I have a 2007 CHevy Impala 3.5 lt engine. The engine light came on and we checked the codes and the code came up $7E8 and $7EA. we believe these are generic codes and the $ could be optional

7E8, 7EA. Cat failure.
- Check the health of catalytic converter.
- Check for cracks in muffler.
- Check air leaks.
- Check back pressure of the tail pipe.

ABS/ Traction control light/BAS & brake light on in 2008 dodge grand caravan

It is safe to drive. You need a scan tool to get a code out of it. Could be as simple as a wheel speed sensor going bad. All of these lights will work together normally. The traction control uses the ABS to gain traction, and the Brake Assist System is part of the stability control. Also uses the ABS.

My lights stay on all the time abs, brake and track control

It sounds like you have a faulty ABCM or anti-lock braking control mechanism. 2003 was a common year for failure of this. Usually your car will drive just fine, however, your ABS and traction control might not work as well as there supposed too in a collision.
