How does ABS and traction control work?
The major difference between an ABS and a Traction Control system is that while ABS stops the wheel from spinning while braking, Traction Control stops the wheel from spinning while the vehicle is accelerating. This process of slowing down the wheel helps it regain traction.
What makes the ABS and traction control light come on?
I know of one Jaguar XK8 owner that just had rusty brake rotors. Because of the surface rust it could not get a clear signal to the wheel sensor. That causing a fault code to pop up. Also say you turn a corner and one tire just ever so slightly brakes traction. This will make your ABS and Traction control fault code light come on.

When does ABS / stability control failure usually occur?
The failure tends to occur after the car has been driven on a hot day, then stopped for about one-half hour, parked in the sun, and restarted. Once the failure occurs during a day, it tends to remain for the rest of the day (but not always). The failure always resets overnight and never occurs when the car is first started in the morning.

Where is the ABS light on a car?
You have no way of knowing until you get the codes scanned. C1095 means the module which is the black electronic box next to the abs pump. If it is the c1155/c1154 then it is usually the abs harness. The wire connector that goes from the top of the inner fender (wing) to the abs sensor on the wheel hub.
