I decided to change the spark plugs on my H6, but as this was more time consuming than I thought it would be I first changed 3 plugs then decided to change the other 3 plugs the following day.
After changing the 3 on the right hand side of the car I noticed the 'VDC ON' light was illuminated.
After quickly having a look around the plugs I realised I hadn't reconnected a block connector, which connects a blue wire to a sensor on the bottom of the engine. I connected this and the 'VDC ON' light went out.
The next day I changed the 3 plugs on the left hand side of the car (had to remove washer bottle and battery). I put everything back again including the blue wire on this side. I started the car and the 'VDC ON' light is now permenantly illuminated ? and will not go out.
It's on all the time, from start up, during driving when cold and up to temperature.
No other warning lights are on.
My car does have the switch to turn off the 'VDC' but pressing this makes no difference.
All I have done is change 6 spark plugs and the air filter.
Previously, the 'VDC' worked fine and warning lights have never illuminated during my ownership.
I unplugged the blue wires (1 on each side) for ease of access to the plugs, these are now reconnected.
Could removal of the battery cause this ?
All the fuses are OK.
Any help would be appreciated though I'm thinking I may of hit one of the sensors when trying to get at the plugs.
Are the sensors fragile ?
