ABS not working on 93 UK Spec FD

[dre]

MrFitz - thinking about it, rear wiper is fine but not sure if rear washer is working. Will test tonight.

INteresting - when my light comes on they stop altogether. However, under normal driving with the light off, sometimes my wipers slow right down to the point of stopping. Your problem sounds similar to mine, but not quite the same. It\'s all probably releated.

Fortunately for me at least, my ABS light hardly ever comes on, so this problem is not evident very often. I wonder whether it\'s a relay or something? I might have an investigation on the net as to whether the relay for the abs and wipers is related.

Yeah it could be the relay. I had a problem once with my wipers when they stopped working and found it to be my front left wheel rubbing on the inside (I have 18x8 rims on the front and it\'s lowered on Tiens). It had worn through the inside arch cover to the wiring. So taped up all the wires and moved them away from the offending wheel. I\'m gonna check those again over the weekend.

Ah - it\'s interesting you should say that: that\'s exactly what\'s happened with mine. Have also taped mine up, and the problem has got a lot less worse. So perhaps that\'s all related.

[dre]

yeah i think it could well be. It\'s probably just worth checking that they are still all taped up and haven\'t moved or broken etc.  :yes
