[sm=smiley20.gif] im here to help im just glad i made a informative post lol

 

ive had the abs shut down for a while. think it was through severe abuse of the brakes. went a couple of days without it, amd then it fixed itself! the manual says its self checking. but to be honest i would like it gone. abs annoys me

 

well then you need it checked and replace the part that is bad

 

since then had no problems with it. except, i can still lock the wheels for a lil bit, but thats under severe punishment (downshifting into the redline while braking)

but anyway, i cant really afford to have it looked at. is there any basic checks i could do, other than the obvious visual......

 

Ya if you wheels can lock at all...the ABS is not working....meaning you can slide easier...its not a backup system like stated before...its an added feature to the brake system that helps you control better....especially if braking in wet situations.

 

i remember the first time i ever triggered ABS in a car. it was in my accord, the car i had before had 4 drum brakes and locked up really easily. anywho- i slammed on the anchors in the damp and there was this really strange dull thudding feel from the brake pedal. i was really worried, never felt that before and i thought that i had a flat, or blown a tyre when i braked. man i felt stupid getting out the car in the cold- looking at the tyres and thinking "wtf?" and then going "aaahh, stupid me.... that must be the abs!"
