Can't get my 3 acd lights to stop coming on.

I tried bleeding it but I can't get the pump to kick on. I tried the whole holding the gas pedal to the floor and turning the ignition on, but never kicks on. Looks like everything is hooked up to it and all the wires look fine Is there a way to test if it's sending the voltage to it or something?

Well I don't think it's my alternator, it's making good voltage and no other problems.

My 3 lights come on also.. When I start it, it's normal and then after a mile or so.. they light up. I haven't dug into it yet to diagnose it. Default tarmac mode for now.

There are some good threads on this subject, search for 5 minutes and you will have your answers, plus more.

Tip: there was a recall on the relay as well.

Mine come on to after about 20+ miles of driving, but my battery
And brake light flash on and off to sometimes stay on so, I'm guessing my alternator is bad.. Trouble is every time I goto check the alternator of course it's working fine....

mine always come on after I use my windshield wipers and stay on until i restart the vehicle. I assume mine is that dumb relay... never comes on any other time and never gives me any issues, took forever to actually put the two together
