new GT4 i just took home as an ABS issue i haven't come accross before.

when you start the car up the ABS light comes on fine and goes off again, only once i start using the brakes do i feel the peddle crunch and judder and the light comes on and stays on. I know the ABS is off at this point as the crunching and judder isn't there with every other push of the peddle.

in my experience when the ABS is broken the light just stays on forever :O

all other braking is fine with no diving or judder

Likely to be a wheel sensor i think, possibly on edge of gap size.

I think you can read fault codes if you look at the how to guides linked off the entry page.

I dont usually bridge the terminals as i have access to a code reader. i suspect and actual sensor (rather than the usual speed ring gunked up or snapped)

will see what it says as i have a few sensors lying around
