Title: ABS juddering
Post by pedropedro on Aug 9^th, 2006, 6:59pm

when braking very slowly the abs comes on sometimes ...but if i turn off ignition and restart the problem goes. So i dont see how it can be a sensor problem. If a sensor were bad why would turning on/off ignition clear the fault..any ideas?

Could be something as simple as a dirty sensor ring. well worth checking.
Turning the ignition off and then on does a system reset for the abs and if the car is moving the faults ussually clear.
read the Full ABS pages on the web site which might help.

Yeah could be conected.

Sounds like either dirty sensors or one is not aligned proper as in twisted slightly.
