problem #1

Jan 282003

S-TYPE 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 1,500 miles
The ABS light and a message stating ABS fault/park brake fault would display while driving at highway speeds. When the car was stopped and re-started, the message would re-set. This happened several times (> 5), and the dealer did not fix for some time because they never got to see the message. We noticed that the problem occurred during or after a heavy rain. The dealer thought there might have been a problem with a sensor on the wheel.ultimately, the dealer replaced the ABS module.
