ABS Breaks issue ?

LotrCrown · 01-26-2013, 11:40 AM

Seems now ive got my baby back from the dead after a cam belt failure, that the abs seems to kick in alot mainly downhill junctions ?

could it be a faulty sensor ?

Again the same as before shes a 1998 Rav4 GLX 2ltr Petrol ....

Don't you know? You gotta put the bull bar back on for the ABS to work right!

Hiya Dr Dyno. My 1999 Rav 4 SWB does it too. Had the calipers replaced as they were sticking but it still seems to kick in the ABS when it shouldn't - often on downhill junctions and never at speed. Have you got to the problem yet? I suspect its an ABS sensor but I don't know how to go about sorting it. Cheers Joe
