Tks Phil, I will track down someone local who can help me do that as it looks like I need to confirm status of all four wheels in the 1st instance.

Tks. Hmm, that makes me nervous code is not wrong then.

My Alfa dealer just confirmed he used an Autel code reader, mentioned in case that means anything to anyone? “Launch” - is that a code reader? Tks.

Tks Phil, is that something any competent auto electrician could do for me or a specialist task?

No doubt but doubt he would fly to Norn Ireland to do it; alas :-)

Ps, while an Alfa reader, he was able to call up Maserati Coupe on the menu - so not totally generic.

Tks x2 yes, was Alfa diagnostic. Perhaps MD trip needed for code read, will check out if they do that as standalone service.

Tks for your help Zep. I am still struggling to get past why it has then thrown 1211. When the reader was plugged in I had driven there after battery reset and both msr and abs lights were on so fault was live and dangerous at time of reading - if so why 1211 and not a W/b code? The 1211...

Agree and thanks; my concern is then it should have thrown one of the W/b codes but it hasn’t. This suggests something else is causing abs to not work, which in turn then causes, not surprisingly, the same symptoms?

Hi, my 2005 Coupe GT (59k miles) abs/msr warning lights came on the other day (other symptoms are cruise control not working - expected; and Rev limiter cutting in at 4,750 rpm - unexpected?). Battery reset didn’t fix and also checked fuse. Went to local Alfa guy expecting to confirm sensor gone...

58k on mine, cables never adjusted and gear change is fine. Based on past conversations on this forum not sure it is a common problem? Obviously something to check on prospective purchase/ as part of ppi.

Goodness, that seems very low. How many are on this forum? - I am one for starters (2005 Nero Carbonio/Avorio).
