is it the rear light cluster?
Possibly. I do get rain in the boot.
ABS sensor is another possibility.

Check if your CV boot has gone.
Yes, I know it sounds silly but the boot goes, as they do, and grease gets thrown all over the ridged ring (fnar fnar) on the cv and the sensor cannot get a reading.
Not really a justification for swapping to a 2ws rack that one :lol:

Furry muff. My comment wasn't directed at you BTW ;) Just a reference to how it's one of the simple things that gets overlooked / 4WS gets the blame for. :)
