Rick V Posted 18September, 2019 Report Share Posted 18September, 2019 The 996.2 GT3 is not far off an annual visit to the team @ Buiks, but took her for a spin today & had ABS Failure light come on. Before I get the pros onto it, I wondered if anyone here has experienced this before? Sensor issue? Easy fix, or otherwise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before I get the pros onto it, I wondered if anyone here has experienced this before? Sensor issue? Easy fix, or otherwise? Have a search on Rennlist. I had one of the brake warning lights come on once (think it was the ABS light but may not have been). Ended up being a bad brake light switch. Ordered a new one (cheap enough), removed the old one and then tried to fit the new one but just couldn’t get it in - super awkward spot. Took it to Porsche and they put it in so quickly they didn’t even charge me Rick V 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoHeadsTas Posted 18September, 2019 Report Share Posted 18September, 2019 Can also come on if you lift a front wheel coming out of, for example, a service station driveway - for some reason the different wheel rotation speeds can fool the ABS. Turn off and restart and should go away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeM Posted 19September, 2019 Report Share Posted 19September, 2019 It's stuffed Rick. I'll take one for the team and give you my car as a straight swap to save you the headaches you'll no doubt endure 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turn off and restart and should go away Yeah, I lift the front left every time in enter or leave my driveway, so looking at Rennlist sounds like this could be part of it. Thanks @LeeM but I think I’ll soldier on!! 👍 LeeM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unclehollywood Posted 30January, 2020 Report Share Posted 30January, 2020 My car wouldn't pull up, cleaned the ABS sensor on each caliper - All good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
