OK so I've sorted the injector issue out and now another fault has cropped up! What I thought was a blown bulb/wiring I'm now thinking this issue is somehow connected to the ABS unit.
Issue: All three brakes lights will illuminate/flicker when I am not operating the brake pedal. If it doesn't do it when I fire up the iginition then if I put the side or headlights on I get the 'blown bulb' sign in DIS as the rear brake lights come on/flicker. If I pump the brake pedal when the engine is running to build pressure the blown bulb light goes out and the brake lights operate as normal. I've also noticed on occasion what sounds like a relay sticking (clicking on/off) which appears to come from the ABS unit (big one the metal pipes connect into) under the bonnet. I'm thinking the two are related.
I'm not aware of there being any faults recorded given that I've just had it checked for the previous fault and it might be intermittant. I've tried disconnecting the battery to re-boot but it still comes back.
Is there a relay in the ABS unit? Any other things I could check before focusing on the ABS unit itself as that won't be cheap!
