ABS + Serv

[Beef-Mc]

As above, only two lights on at the moment, just appeared after I stopped for petrol.

So tell me what possible problems it could be and how much it's going to cost me, cars a 54 plate 1.6.

CHeers.

mine was an abs ring broken

 

[Beef-Mc]

Mmm, I only replaced the disks all round less than 6 months ago, anymore idea's? Or am I taking this to a garage?

 

[stu ball]

hmm now u say that you did nt have non gen discs and pads fitted did you? if you did some of the dics come with out pick up rings

 

[mickstoke]

Front disks are mintex and have been grand and the rears have been genuine OE.

May be that, there's been some f**k off puddles kicking about here lately, what plug am I looking at btw?

 

[mickstoke]

there will be a wire on you hubs. plugs will on that wire mate

 

[Beef-Mc]

Cheers will have a look tommorrow.

If anyone wants to pitch in with other idea's feel free.

 

[mickstoke]

will dry out anyways if it is this

My ABS light came on because of a knackered ABS sensor, just get it plugged in on a diagnostic machine, quicker and easier than faffing about with "um it might be this or that"

 

[Parky]

im having the same issue,... wire is looking alittle "used",,,,

This happened to me the other day but I stopped for petrol and after that the lights haven't come on again. Do you think it's worth getting it checked out?

 

[Beef-Mc]

Old boy reckons it could be low on brake fluid and that's bringing the lights on, is it possible?

Low brake fluid causes the handbrake light to flash on around left hand corners, wouldn't have thought it'd affect the ABS sensors.

Mine came on due to the brake light switch needing adjusting.

This the one under the brake pedal?

Speedo appears fucked as well so that's another £20.

Just worked it out, the CV boot has split and has covered the ABS ring in grease and the top of the boot.
Cheap enough fix anyway.
