Ok I've searched and searched but can't seem to find anything on this issue. Well my ABS and Advance Traction light came on. Turned out to be one of the rear sensors , as i was about to replace the sensor I seem to have some play in the hub. So instead of replacing just sensor I ended up replacing Both rear hubs... ( what A job that turned out to be ) ... All said in done New Hubs of course I replace the rotors while i was having so much fun doing this... The ABS light has cleared but now the Advance traction Light Flashes for a few mins then stays on.. Does anyone have any idea how or what could this be now....
or what I should do... no codes are popping up ... So any ideas on where I should begin to look..Thanks in Advance ( ha ha Advance)

What scanner are you using to read codes? It might not be able to read the necessary codes for the Advancetrack.. If it's a bluetooth thing, you might try "FORScan", google it. It's available for iOS and Windows, and an Android version is in the final stages of beta testing which you can find in the forums.

Other than that, are there any specific interval or anything on the flashing?

Ok, then your best bet first is to check with the FORScan app. As it can read codes from all modules, unlike your generic OBD scanners, it may be able to point you in a direction. I suspect that you'll find a code from that module since the light is on.

Here's their website: FORScan

The best bluetooth adapter to use with it is the OBDLink MX which is about $99. If that's too much, you can also use cheaper china scanners, some of which may require a small modification to access the MS CAN network.

The awesome bit, this FORScan software on Windows can even program PATS keys.. lol. And it's free.
