Can anyone tell me of a simple fix for these problems?

My ABS light stays on after reaching 10mph rather than going out.

Plus my brake are spongy as a result.

What could be the cause?

Also my Lambda sensor light stays on - dirty or faulty sensor?

Thanks
Craig

first thing, how recently have your brakes been spongey?? have you checked the fluid level recently?? Common thing for your abs light is wheel bearings working lose, check them all, shouldn't take more than a couple of hours, or it could be faulty sensor.

As for your lambda sensors, try disconnecting them first and clean the insides of the connectors with some contact circuit spray. then see if that works, if it doesn't it could be that they're not switching properly and telling the ECU to inject more fuel than necessary.

Failing all that could be a plug in diagnostics check.
