´96 850 R ABS error code 441

Hi, three years after my 850 has again the ABS/TRACS lights blues!

I have scanned my car with VOL-FCR and the code is "ABS-441: Main Relay in Control Module". I didn´t clear it off. I turned off the engine and restarted, and the lights were off. But I have the annual inspection on thursday and I´m a bit worried if they appear again. Although I think my 850 can pass with the ABS lights on (if it was the airbag light on, it would fail), if it´s easy to repair I would give it a shot before the inspection. What does error code 441 mean?

Thanks!

Not sure but you could probably remove the bulb and they would not know it's missing. They usually look for the Check Engine light.

Pull the main harness off and make sure there isn't any corrosion in the socket. That code isn't a module fault, it usually pops up with low/flaky voltage.

Clear it and carry on.

The harness seems fine, and I´ve cleared the code. Today the ABS/TRACS lights have remained off.
Here the Check Engine isn´t important (they check emissions anyway) but the Airbag light is a fail.
Let´s cross fingers for the inspection! Thanks a lot.
