ESP and ABS warning lights?
Qetesh
Last night while driving home from Blockbuster my 2002 EV ESP and ABS warning lights both came on. After turning off and restarting the van, the lights stayed off. What could have caused these lights to come on like that? They came on when I was turning right at an intersection with moderately wet roads. Should I be concerned about a bigger problem?

You might be able to get some "History" codes out of the controllers
if you take it to the dealer? The only thing that comes to mind is that they both use the wheel speed sensors?

i can't say much about the slip part, but yes, the speed sensor is
definitely a part of it. they came on for me when i had 2 different size tires, front & back. now the 4 are the same, all is good. Part 2.....i also had them stay on due to failure of the airbag clock spring in the steering wheel. went to the dealer new one was a dud, next one worked like a charm. being an EV and all this took about 11 days. so they were nice enough to give me a rental with UNLIMITED miles. sweet deal and there loss. i racked up a ton of miles. 2001 GLS VW Team K2/Trek ChRiStOpHeR e LiNdEnBeRg rsibeetle@... t4bus_boy@...
