I put in my spare OVP............up goes the idle and "on" goes the ABS light. Looks like my spare is no good. Just for the heck of it I pulled it apart and sprayed it out with contact cleaner; fuses were good already. I put it back in and got the same result. So, the old one (single fuse) went back in and the car is running "fine" again.

If the original OVP in the car is bad, it is certainly displaying a different failure mode than the spare one that I tried.

I just got back from a 10 minute drive and it's running great as I expected. Tomorrow I'll drive it down to the local Pick N Pull and see if I can get another relay (they can't all be bad can they?). I'm planning on driving below the speed limit and keeping it under 3500rpm - just like my Mom would drive it!

She drives this car around with my 5 year old in the back and I REALLY want to find the problem!

Thanks,
Gregg
