FAO People with a 4x4 front brake upgrade AGAIN

Postby J Brown on Sat Apr 05, 2003 6:54 pm

Just had my brakes changed today and no problem with the fitting at all.
Now I keep getting the orange ABS light flicking on and off. Anyone Know why??

Any help would be great

Cheers
Joe :)

ABS lamp only warns of belt tension, nowt to do with brakes. That said there is a connection to the low brake fluid sender (in brake reservoir) and handbrake warning.

Very basic system.

The only other possibility is the low brake pad warning circuit, but afaik very few, if any Fiestas up to 94 had that.
