Default Accelerometer Cleaning?

Guys,
I know this topic has been discussed many times and I have done a search and got some valuble info, but....
My '90 C4 PDAS warning light together with the two exclamation (!) lights is coming on after a few minutes of normal driving, always at less than 40mph. I have 'exercised' my difflocks several times as I know lack of use sometimes leads to a problem, checked fluid levels (fine), so my next step was to clean my accelerometers.......is it worth it or am I barking up the wrong tree?
Advise very much appreciated.
Thanks,

How do you check your fluid levels? (From Adrian's book)Hop in your car, start it up, and pump the pedal until you can hear the hydraulic pump running. Then check your fluid level. I was having what I think might be the same problem, although more info on which lights are illuminating would be helpful, and it amounted simply to my brake fluid being low.
