Thats emergency mode, may also be in 'diff lock' so dont drive it far, in my case it saw the ABS that was faulty (hand brake light came on too) but i suspect yours is just a dccd controller or gearbox fault.

yes, in my case the whole ABS controller was fooked.
The diagnostics monitor was also saying abs fault on mine, dealer wouldnt beleave it though as hed never had one go before, so spent 3 days looking for a wiring fault.
