Abs 1-2 error code

Post by c_doughty1 » Tue Mar 22, 2016 7:54 pm

Ok the story so far.....I've replaced the abs pump and motor with a new one that has been reconditioned and woop woop the abs light is off.
Now the bad news when I set off driving as soon as I hit the brakes the abs light comes back on. Code 1-2 again grrrrr!
Could it be a dirty abs sensor? Or should I just kill my self as the abs pump has been in and out now twice and if it has to come back out again I may cry.
Help :cry:

What does the fault finding guide in the service manual say? (Having now discounted the modulator/pump unit)

Also where did you get a reconditioned unit from?

To test motor relay, motor fuse and unit fuse....this I'll do tomorrow if I get time.

The abs motor and pump was reconditioned at a place near to where I live.

I'm just getting massively frustrated.

Yeah I'm not surprised. Very annoying.

What did they actually do when they refurbished it?

Maybe worth investigating it pre new mot, error 1-2 is ABS pump motor circuit problem. You may have a fuse gone or a damaged wire maybe....I had 1-2 now I think we're all sorted I just have air in abs motor pump so I need to bleed it.

I will be looking into it, and intend to do a full brake bleed with I put on the braided brake leads.
