4th Gen: ABS Light - Code 1

arif_manji · Post by **arif_manji** » Mon Jun 12, 2017 9:36 am

Hi Guys,

I have got the ABS light come on my 4th Gen UKDM. It comes on after 1-2 minutes into the journey and stays on throughout the journey and so on. I checked the code and it comes up as ABS code 1. I have done some reading the manual and code 1 is ABS pump motor over-run.

I'm quiet surprised to get this code on such a low mileage Prelude? (64,000 miles from new). I replaced all pads and discs last years inc bleeding each corner.

Could it be anything else causing it to triggering code 1?

I've booked it in with Matt @ Red-R Performance next month to have a look but for now just gathering ideas etc.

Cheers

I'm sure I had this on mine and had to have the abs pump swapped...

Why did you replace it Drax? I've seen some who have taken out the pump, replaced the seals etc and bleeded the pump which has fixed it apparently.

Swapping it is easier than rebuilding one, is all (you have to take it out in order to rebuild it).

Then you run the risk of the replacement one going wrong within a day, week or month too? I may get mine rebuilt. But before then, ill get Matt to bleed it and see how it gets on.

Well that's absolutely a possibility, yes. If you're happy to pay for it to be overhauled then fair do's.

Does anyone know who can refurbish the complete pump? Specialist, company etc? Cheers

someone on here has had it done in the last year or so... Trying to remember who it was!
