I have just returned to my car after a month away and the ABS light has come on.
The pump ran for the full 2 mins and then automatically cut off and triggerred the light.
I Hoped it was a stuck solenoid and knocked up some leads quickly to exercise them but whilst they all respond and click away, only the first one exercised foamed back any fluid and now, whilst the pump runs on demand, (fairly noisily), there seems to be no system pressure building. My first thought is that maybe the accumulator diaphragm has failed whilst sitting for a month and the nitrogen pre-charge has gone. No compressable gas, no pressure build up!
Anybody got any advice or suggestion.
Can't take it to the Honda dealer, there is only one in the country and they refuse to go near it as they didn't supply it.
Cheers,
Andy
