Title: dreaded abs light
Post by gost on Nov 14^th, 2009, 12:23pm

Morning gents, when turning ignition abs light goes out , move away still out, drive for about 20 mins and it comes on, stop restart everything ok again for 20 mins, any ideas?

Do nothing unless you are troubled by it !! MOT wont pick it up if it goes out when you start it in the testing station,naughty but true.As you know we didn't have all that nonsense years ago,non of these modern gismos improve proper driving standards,just allow for continuous blinding down the road regardless ::)

Unusual one, the dry solder joint possibly? heating up and breaking the connection?

Scan first I think to check the codes
