I've been trying to sort my abs out on my 3 door. I'm guessing before I had the car the abs had been bodged as words were joined to make it run all the time. I've put all wiring back to how it should be and the I turn ignition on but nothing happenes.

The warning lights come on bit that's it.

I've replaced:
another Ecu
Both pressure switches in the pump
All speed sensors
All fuses / relays but not for original not sure if would make any difference but the originals weren't in there to start with so not sure what ones they are.

I'm just stuck and it's all I need to be able to drive the car after nearly 4 years of a restoration!

 

do you have power when you turn the ignition to position 2? the radio one bit?

has the dash come apart? there were 2 plugs behind that under the windscreen, one for the fusebox and one for the ignition power, has someone unplugged these and not plugged them back again?

you've not burnt out the fuseable link from the battery?

 

I have power the pump runs if I bridge the relay so there is power to everything. Just not sure why the thing doesn't work lol

 

When Should the pump prime?
As I've now found a wire and swapped with another one and now the pump works but doesn't stop running! On first and second position. But the pedal is still hard and I get nothing from the rear?

Thanks

 

The punp needs to run for a few second to build up the pressure but from position 1

Constant running burns it out

 

Sorted it all now, turns out the pipe that feeds it was kinked so wasn't getting any brake fluid. Thank god it's fixed haha

 

See? Easy

 

Smashing when something turns out to be a simple fix when you are getting worried its going to be a nightmare!!
