I just want to ride my car with the top down at least a few times this summer ,
Is there a way to disconnect the ABS light so the code does not read it , ?????the top is not going down because the ABS light stays on , I need to disconnect it .
or does anyone have any ideas about this ??
Please help a girl who just wants her nice blonde hair to flow in the wind while driving her old Benz !!!!
I knew I was going to buy my 380 SL the moment I looked at it and the salesman demonstrated the manual top. The power top on my 86 Mustang Convertible I waited for to fail every time I used it. No help I know but I love a well engineered manual top.
