I'm guessing the solenoid valves are built into the ABS valve block itself, so part of the ABS/TC ECU. Could be a dodgy connection between the valve block and the ECU's PCB I guess. :-/

Vx's diagnostics is.......no checking anything.......

Change the ABS ECU and if that doest fix it......
Change the ABS Hydraulic Unit.

Sounds nice and cheap fix then  ::)  :'(

BTW where is the ABS ECU? and how hard should I tap it Mark?
Small/medium hammer or Sammy Sledge?

Ah rite.........cheers peeps  :y .....I'll give that a go in the morning.....and let you know what happens.....

If it makes any difference to diagnosis.....the light doesnt come on every time I press the brakes......but when it does I always have the pedal pressed.
