Anyway you look at it, I would consider that you have an ABS issue. Does the light for the ABS come on when you turn the car on? (Meaning, does it blink on, then go out ... or maybe it doesn't come on at all?) When the ABS self diagnostics happen, it should blink on then off. If you don't see it at all, it means the bulb is burnt out, or the bulb was taken out. I point this out incase there is a hidden ABS issue which is being masked by the lack of a dash light. | |
