Any suggestions for things to check out would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...Seth   Jaime (Blueboy) Senior Member Username: Blueboy Post Number: 909 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Thursday, February 26, 2004 - 06:44 pm:    Seth, The ABS controls your ETC system so usually if the fault is with the ABS, your ETC light will come on - at least it did with my '93RR. The easiest problem for a fix is one of the sensors has unseated itself. So check each sensor and make sure it is inserted fully. If that doesn't work, it could be a faulty sensor and that is when I go to a mechanic to determine which one it is. And yes, the sensors could work one day and fail the next so don't be surprised if it is indeed a bad sensor. Eventually I ended up with all new sensors over the course of ownership with mine. Good luck.

It will describe how to read and what the faults are. Jaime is right that it is probably a sensor, but this will save you time in pinpointing exactly what the problem is. Good luck to you.

The rovers north sight doesn't specify which side to remove the trim. I removed the trim from the right side and it looked nothing like the pic. Where exactly are these ABS sensors located? Thanks for the help you all...

Did you try re-seating it like what Jamie mentioned?   Seth Philyaw (Rr93classic) New Member Username: Rr93classic Post Number: 12 Registered: 01-2004 Posted on Wednesday, March 10, 2004 - 10:22 pm:    yeah I tried reseating by just tapping on it with a hammer and punch but nothing happened thanks though...Seth
