Default Cosworth owners, I'd like some help ABS wise please.

Anybody come accross this problem and solved it???

The ABS and Brake warning light have come on and the pedal has gone ROCK solid so there is no brake assist. Also I can't hear the pump priming when I put the ignition on like usual. Anyone come accross this???

All help greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Cheers for the tips,

I've since found that the 30Amp fuse under the Glovebox had popped, After replacing it and trying again the Motor primes but only very slowly and sounded almost like it was really struggling, then the fuse popped again!

Does it sound like the pump is failing on me???

Cheers
