ESP Light On

Hi guys, got a 2.2 DCI SXE N16. Love the car.
The ESP light came on a while ago, now i know the brakes need doing, and ive got the parts to do them, but what am i looking for, because i cant see anything but ABS sensors...(the ABS light isnt on) It was funny how the light only came on after i changed the battery too. Any help please?
 
I had this a while ago, light came on for a few days then went out again.

Try disconnecting the battery for a couple of hours to see if it resets.

Thanks for the reply! I will try again tonight, but i disconnected it over night about a month ago, and it had no effect.
 
Might sound a bit silly but the button hasnt been pressed has it? Im sure youd have checked but you never know haha.
 
Have you messed with the tracking or clipped a kerb atall ? If the steering wheel is not dead ahead when driving straight then the steering angle sensor may see that as a fault for the esp system.
 
As far as im aware they use the same sensors mate. Might be worth getting it plugged in if your kbow someone with diagnostics.

Thanks for this! .......I think it is ever so slightly off actually..... and my tyres are wearing on the outsides a little...... Ill get it checked out after ive done the brakes i was gonna MOT it anyway, pretty sure the garage will have the diagnostics for it :)
