Caught out! ABS query...

[Thorfinn]

Hi Folks,

I think i've sorted out what I thought was an ignition switch problem - turned out to be a duff connector on the cable to the switch (the four-pin connector under the tank). Cut out the connector, soldered the cable-lengths together, all seemed well. :yes

BUT! I suddenly noticed in the Haynes Book of Lies ( :euro) that "the ignition switch must always be OFF before disconnecting the battery or the ABS computer will register a system fault". Of course, I'd been connecting and disconnecting the battery repeatedly with the igintion ON whilst fault-finding.

Have not had time to take it for a run today - but IF that bloody light keeps blinking at me tomorrow, how do I clear the fault?

Cheers chaps,

Simon (Cornwall, near England)

I say old chap! Thanks awfully, that's a simply whizzo top-notch piece of advice!  :euro

(I don't really talk like that. just overdoing the British thing for effect)

Seriously, I'm very grateful for that - will investigate tomorrow.

Thanks,

Simon

As things turned out I was lucky, and the ABS system did not throw up an error. Nonetheless, the ABS info that Johnny pointed me to will be invaluable in the future, I have no doubt. Thanks again!
