Thread: Traction control light on, brake lights always on with key.

  1. #1

    Traction control light on, brake lights always on with key.

    I've got a 2015 Mirage that the driver was saying random warning lights keep coming on, abs, traction, brake light. I go outside and see the brake lights lit up. Car has 294,000kms. The floor is white from all the salt, the fabric floor mat is frozen to the carpet.

    The brake switch does work properly, you can't get it out of park unless you hit the brakes.

    Pulled the kick panel off, I forgot that I already relocated the lowest connector and the 2 just above it. Everything looks good and clean.

    Pulled the drivers seat, lift the carpet and there's a capped connector that looks crusty as hell. I'll post some pics later.
    I had the same problem on a 2017 a couple years ago.

    I have a bunch of random threads on the forum about similar problems but can't find them so I'll leave this one here.

    Oooofffff! The good news is whoever buys that Mirage will have had it repaired by a Mirage specialist! You can't ask for more than as a used buyer.

    That was a work car. They don't get sold they get written off then parted out.

    Pretty stunned to see that much meltification without a blown fuse! Scary. If it were a Ferrari, it probably would have gone up in flames.


    Simplify and add lightness.
