Re: Antilock light stays on all the time. Hard to brake Posted by Larry West [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Antilock light stays on all the time. Hard to brake, Charles Rowell, Sun, 5 Sep 2010 14:40:00 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
If the Antilock light is on, and you're getting harder than normal braking, then the ABS is NOT working, you effectively have no rear brakes, and reduced front brake effectiveness, due to the harder pedal. What you really need to do is get it to a Saab dedicated independent shop for a proper diagnosis.
As for the temp, it could be a simple stuck thermostat. Replacing the thermostat & flushing & replacing the coolant may fix that.
With those issues, unless the rest of the car is in very good shape, you'll not get much for the car, I don't think. Several site sponsors will sell you the needed parts, but no matter where you get the MC from, it'll be expensive.
