Diesel ABS same as petrol type?
I am getting desperate to put the car back on the road after a flooding rendered it not useable three months ago (needs MOT now).
I have a two litre petrol connie with ALL lights on after a flood, ABS, Park brake, and traction control. As it is similar fault to a previous "dosing" I am assuming the CANBUS wires/connections OR PINS in the ABS plug at fault. Of course I may be wrong! The plenum was dry at the time. It also at the time of the flooding had a speedo not working and of course the wipers going into intermittent mode as if stationary. The question is as there are plenty of ABS with TC for diesels ..... Are they the same? Any help or advice will be welcome. The car is too good and unique(to me anyway) to break.

Where in Dorset are you? Pm me if you don't want to put a town up.
If you need some help, and not too far, I could come over and have a look with / for you. I have a spare abs ecu and loom plug... Chris

If you have TC then the ABS unit is not interchangeable between petrol and diesel.
Diesel ABS + TC modulators are quite rare. |
