ABS Issues
« on: February 28, 2020, 01:47:55 PM »
As of a few weeks ago when I had Hall Effect issues my ABS 1 has been playing up.


The symptoms are as follows.  When I turn the ignition on the Hazard warning light and the ABS light on the dash flash alternatively not together as is normal.  When I press the ABS switch on the dash the ABS light goes off but the hazard light remains on and fixed (unlike both as before).


When starting out the hazard light goes off but the ABS light remains on.  It never recycles as it is supposed to every ten minutes.


I have cleaned and checked all ABS connections to no effect.  I have tried to reset the ABS various times to no effect.  When I try and read the error codes in the system I get nothing. The 12V LED comes on and stays on, no flashing or anything.


The ABS is not working, I locked the rear wheel on purpose and the system did not kick in.


Has anyone had similar issues before and if so what was the cause?

I had some weird things with the warning lights last fall with my 1989 K100RS.  It turned out to be a wonky ABS relay.  I also had a bad flasher module, but that caused a different problem with the turn signals and hazard flashers.
