Hi MikeTorque, thanks for the reply.
We did try to turn the traction control ON/OFF via the TC switch, didn't work. Someone at my work told me that the ABS and Traction control unit were integrated, i feel that they did damage it, but how do you prove it.
Unfortunately it's been 11 months since they did this check; ironically it was after the last MOT - which is now upon me again. I don't think they'll give a refund now.
The piece of golden paper costing £24 says:
Check for fault with traction control light staying on. Trace fault with Lateral Accelerometer circuit failure. New sensor £376.67 +vat +fitting. Code - C1282.
We are going to do several suggested checks soon and if the unit is the cause, we will check with the breakers yard first.
Thank you.
