After reporting the blocked solenoids issue to the owner, we discussed about the possible options. One of them is obviously to overhaul the existing one and I have done it on many units as well as translated and forwarded the method to another owner. However, I always need to remind the owner of the original ABS on the following points. 1. You must exercise the ABS regularly otherwise you ...
Even before starting to flush the ABS, already found a problem. The reservoir cap seal was not positioned properly and trapped under the cap. Possibly, some debris and moisture got inside as there were several bits held in the filter. Fortunately, I had spare cap so replaced it. ...

It is important to flush the ABS system regularly especially if you have the 1st and 2nd generation ABS on your NSX. 1st and 2nd generation ones will have separated reservoir just in front of the Brake master cyl. 3rd generation (upgraded ABS) one is part of the Main brake system and sharing the master cyl reservoir. This NSX is equipped with 2nd generation ABS so has been modified to cope with several ...
As soon as I started the service, I knew there was something wrong with the system. I had to close the bleeder four times before I could release the high pressure fluid from the accumulator because there was excessive air in the system. While I was pressurising the system in order to flush the accumulator, already there was some fluid coming out of the return port. This ...

Flushed the accumulator twice with fresh fluid and then moved onto four solenoids. While pressurising the accumulator, I noticed tiny amount of bubbles coming out of the return port. This means that at least one of the solenoid is leaking. After flushing one solenoid, the reservoir was emptied and fresh fluid was pumped into the accumulator to replace as much fluid as possible ...
