ABS Light Problems
Hi Guys,
I have a Bugeye Impreza WRX STI Type UK which has had an 8 pot break conversion on the front, When I got the car the lad said the light had been on since then.
Thing is I have checked the ABS sensors and they are fine, Fluid is fine. ABS defo not working when I break hard in wet.
What else could it be any faults that are common to these cars.
Any help greatly appreciated Guys

Hi,
Thanks for the info
Its in a garage now but they can connect any of the computer equipment to it, it connects fine with other STI card from classics to new age but mine wont connect.
I even purchased a meter off here one of the other guys used and it wont recognise my car.
So even if i get it to you guys will your diagnostic equipment connect.
How much for a diagnostic test mate ?
Regards
Dex

Well guys
booked into AS Performace tomorrow to see if they can connect there diagnostics to my car, Think its caused by the Simtek ECU. Hopefully I will be able to see what the fault is.
Cheers Again
