Default Wheel Bearing Warning Light

Is there such a thing as a warning light on the dash for a dud wheel bearing - read it somewhere but couldn't find anything in the manual for it.

Car is a spec C hawkeye and abs, brake and DCCD lights are all on

Thanks
Peter

It may be wheel bearing causing these problems but there is no such thing as a wheel bearing light

It will be a sensor, maybe the steering column sensor, its a speciallist job tbh, garage time.

It's usually a warning sound for a dud wheel bearing, i.e. the horrid whining noise coming from the offending item, goes away when cornering in one direction, gets worse when you go the other direction

You should be able to rule out wheel sensors with a multimeter but then will need testing by a specialist, although steering angle sensor is common cause of this nut believe not easy to change
