What do you guys think the problem is.

 

either the abs belt has snapped or the sensors are faulty

 

will it not activate the abs? wud it be a big problem?

 

if the belt has snapped the abs will not work properly

 

IT'll fail MOT like that too

take the abs out totally...

 

yea im in 2 minds of doing this. ive got front cosworth setup. Will it make a lot of difference?

 

bear in mind that removing the abs entails removing the modulators and replumbing the brake lines!! just removing the belts will only stop the abs from working! doin it properly will result in better pedal feel

 

do they lock up easier tho?

 

took my abs out and the brakes were fine. only thing i noticed was my back end stpeeing out braking hard from high speeds, prob just my crappy rear drums though. felt nice nonetheless to brake with. and gets rid of the shitty modulators which makes changing the gearbox easier!!!

 

does the ABS weigh a lot?

I was thinking of putting braided brake line and also ripping the abs out. Would the lights still be flashing once i take it out?

 

yes the light will still come on but is easy to bypass

 

how do u bypass it

 

either just tape the sensors up or remove them and rewire the plugs to make the connection

 

my light is always on and i have cossie brakes all round im not sure about the m.o.t thought as my abs is still fitted just no belts on it.

 

Or one of the sensors has fallen out of the housing.
Access is better underneath, but you can do it from the top if you're flexible If you look under the car & see something dangling, then I'm gonna guess it's one of the sensors. The fit into a small rectangle housing onto the abs belt (large oval shaped plastic cover with small rectangle hole)

 

i could just take the bulb out of the dash
