Hi All,

Need help with ABS Light on in my UK Spec ITR 1998.

ABS light is constantly on and flash code suggests a speed sensor in the gearbox. I called Honda for a quote on the part and was told speed sensor has nothing to do with the ABS system.

And ideas, any help greatly appreciated.

Yea, they are two different things. As for the ABS light on, Jack up the caR and inspect all four ABS sensors for damage. Replace whatever necessaryand clean up all sensors. GL

 

Thanks, where are the rear sensors located. I can see the fronts but not the backs? Thanks

 

Hi Abs flash codes are. (Abs light flashing.)

1 Long followed by 7 short

1 Long followed by 8 short

8 long followed by 1 short

Can anybody help with understanding the code?

Many thanks

"How to Read Codes From Your Check Engine Light"

With the wire in place, put the key in the ignition and put the car into the "run" position. That's two clicks for Honda users.

Wait a second and keep your eye on the check engine light. You should see it start to light up in a series of flashes.

The light is blinking in a simple code of long and short. Long blinks mean "10" and short blinks mean "1".

For example, if light was blinking once for a long time, and then twice for a short time. That is 10, 1 and 1 which means error code 12. Code 12 indicates a problem with EGR system. This is the system that sends some of the engine's exhaust into the cylinder to cool the combustion process and keep temps in the cylinders down. Having a broken EGR is relatively common on a high mileage car.

You can find a list of error codes for the make and model of your car online by doing a simple search. The ones for Honda are included below.

Sorry, can't help you with that. LOL. Anyway, here is a good article on how to clean the sensors:

I'm assuming you have taken a rear tire off, if so look at it directly from the bottom, it's covered by a small shield and a couple 10 mm bolts, very easy to find.
