  1. Hellsfire555's post in airbag/abs/p.steering lights on was marked as the answer   
    HI!!!   thought i'd report on the outcome in case it can help others.......I checked the speed sensors with a obd and after i sussed how to do it they all came out OK,so that was off the list,i bought a new after market steering angle sensor and fitted it ....while doing so i noticed that the Module thing had dropped a little and had obviously disconnected a few things slightly,this occured as when i first got the car after a few weeks  the key could not be removed and i had to drill the steering lock out, when i put the lot together i for some reason didnt put the little screw back that holds the module in place (mustve lost it???) i held it in place with really good tape (this was at least 2 years ago),i'm assuming that with the weather lately the tape got sticky and melted a bit and with the amount of road humps round my way the Module dropped down????....it is possible that the angle sensor was ok but just disconnected?? ....all the faults are gone now and the car seems to be working ok with no warning lights on the dash.....i guess i will never know as i aint gonna check as it was a bit of a pain in the ar5e to do.   it all makes sense now with te wipers/indicaters not working which was a bit wierd .....anyway cheers to those who gave advice......by the way.....my obd skills need to get better as i removed the tool and left the key in the ignition ON overnight  and fried the battery☹️....it was really swollen once i sussed ...£50 down the drain....lucky i didnt fry the electrics and lucky the battery didnt explode....i noticed the previous owner didnt remove the 2 plugs from the battery that you are supposed to do when you recieve it??? maybe ive been driving a ticking timebomb??? i didnt even know batteries had these plugs???  ....cheers again all
