ABS problem with 3dr
 
My abs light is coming on when it shouldn't be. It comes on as normal when the car is switched on from cold then goes out quite quickly. Problem is its coming back on after about 5-10 mins of driving and stays on. Anyone any idea what the problem might be?

Come on, someone throw me a bone here!

have you got differebt sized tyres on the front & rear axles?
if so the tyre size can be enough for the abs light to come on when u reach a certain spedd. other than that clean all the sensors & the teeth on the hubs also checking for any that are broken

Wheels are different but they have been for a while and the problem has only just started. I will try cleaning the sensors and checking them though, ta :top:

check for damage and clean the sensors and the fuse for abs(under near the pedals also disconnect the abs ecu for a few mins then reconnect the latter sorted my problem!

Where is the abs ecu located?
