Afternoon.

First problem i have an abs light intermittently coming on and going off after being plugged into a delphi diagnostic tool it came back with the following: abs/asr pump mechanically blocked so started with a simple brake fluid change which has made no difference hoping that someone maybe able to shed some light on this issue no fault code was found for this issue.


Thanks.

Lee.

You say no fault code was found, but the delphi box found one to give you the description. Best to use Lexia/Diagbox from ebay for a fully covered fault code and description for the C3.

You have posted this fault in the Engine problems part of the forum, but it clearly looks like an ABS problem.

The description from delphi box is 'abs/asr pump mechanically blocked' which could indicate a fault with the ABS module
