Hmmm...well...let's think about this for a second. You were doing suspension work, and then you get the car back together and the ABS ***** itself. What part of the ABS is near the suspension, I wonder. Oh yah....the wheel speed sensors. Ya think maybe one of those might've gotten disconnected, dirty, or not re-installed properly?

Because you suck at giving information and might as well shut up.

honestly, i'd just get a stand alone ECU and remove the ABS altogether....just one less thing to worry about

and it's so much more fun
