ABS problem?

Post by habstb »

When taking a slow, braking right turn, my ABS engages. It also seems to happen when turning while backing up. I've had my ABS module serviced by Victor and there are no lights or codes. Could this be a sensor problem? Otherwise, brakes are OK.

Yes, it sounds like it could be. You can clean them at each wheel and see if this clears things up.
