D1 Brakes ?? trouble!

[skyguy]

Hi all, Just after I got the oil cooler lines fixed (fell off BTW) I had an interesting albeit slightly scary moment with the brakes.

Pedal went to the floor truck needed to be stopped by e brake. Checked out everything I could see and everything looks normal. Strange thing is that they came back again.............. ***? Any Ideas?

ABS acting up.... This is a known LR trait.... you can either spend alot of money swapping out ABS sensor, modulators, ABS controllers etc.... plus flushing brake lines or you can opt for the non-legal (read I will not recommend or suggest this fix) but what I did was remove the 30 AMP ABS fuse under the hood (primary fuse block) and have been ABS issue free for 3 years.

30 amp fuse under hood?

Hi Joey, thanks for the tip. I pulled the 5amp fuse under the dash I guess I will pull the 30 amp!!


Thanks, beer on me if we ever cross paths.

Joey, I have only been checking these boards for a week or so and am a noob to Rovers (Pinzgauer expert though). If not for the fact we are at least 2,500 miles away I would take you flying in a second flat. From the effort you put forth helping others out on this board you deserve it.

Have a grrat day!
