When I bought my 93 9000 the ABS light was on. It would come on intermittlently, usually not on when I started the car, but over the course of my drive would invariably come on. One day, I was leaving a parking lot on a snowy/icy day, I applied the brakes and the brake petal actually fought back and pushed it's way up. That was the only time it's ever done that.
After that I figured consistent braking (no abs) was better than abs sometimes. I pulled the fuses and have had them out since last December. Locked out of the house, I had nothing to do but fiddles, so I put the fuses back in. The first stop on my drive, the car took longer to stop than usual, which I presume could be the abs working.
I had it checked by my mechanic (while other work was being done) he said the fail code was "main relay failure" but a change of the relay made no difference. Citing "deeper issues" I let it be. (this, again, was last year)
I've been paying attention... I've noticed what feels like a "clunk," with no audible noise during a hard brake or full stop during my drive. This was not present when the fuses were out. Does that sound like anything to anyone?
