300E ABS Failure On Highway
Hello All,
This happend to be quite a close one for me on the highway yesterday. Traffic came to a complete stop around a bend forcing me to slam on the brakes, the wheels screeched, locked up, and the car slid sideways. I let up off the brakes and countersteered into the brakedown lane, pampering the pedal while nearly missing the car in front of me. I suppose that I should have addressed this some time ago as the ABS dashlight has been on for over a year, yet all it takes is one quick stop!
I understand that a faulty OVP relay can cause the ABS light to go on but will it render the ABS system completley useless? Could this be a faulty ABS relay (Located under the black plastic cover on the ABS module) ? Any input would be greatly appreciated, this experince nearly scared the crap out of me, thank god I had my Intrax springs in for the twisties!!
