Oh dear....

The post 98 ABS ECUs do seem to suffer from premature failure.

Worth cleaning and check gap on ABS sensors, but I fear the worse  :'(

The sensors reliable, not worth changing. I will be the ECU I fear.

Had this very recently .. ABS ECU faulty .. new one from VX is VERY expensive. Mine was removed and sent to

BBA-reman Ltd
Unit 9 Sabre Court
Gillingham Business Park
Kent
ME8 0RW

Phone: 01634 230055

They tested, mended, returned within a week, with a 2 year warranty for £150 including courier back. I was well pleased with the service, I would suggest you give them a ring.
