Strange Warning Light Combo

Post by Gayno » Mon Apr 30, 2012 7:19 pm

Just got into car after the meet yesterday, no problems or lights on the way home, and I have the following lights on:

4WS
ABS
Battery (alternator)
Cat

There is no noise/clicking from 4WS ECU. I had the ECU out last year and soldered the dry joints.

Has anyone seen this combo before?

No, but a bad alternator can cause havoc!
