1992 Honda Accord ABS Dash Light - Error Code
HI
I have a 1992 Honda Accord. The ABS light has started to come on. If I start the car, and dont drive it does not come on but after about 30 seconds of driving it comes on and stays on. I followed the instructions in another post and used a paper clip to short the connector by the passenger foot plate. when I turned on the switch, all the dash lights including the ABS one came on. Then the ABS light flashed 3 times. Does anyone know what that code means?? Secondly, worse case scenario, if that code suggests the pump is gone, (which I would not replace because of the $$$), is there a fuse or breaker that I can remove to make the warning light go out? Thanks for your help jasguild |

Hey Comboverfish
I rechecked the flash sequence and it is in fact the 1 - 2 variety which apparently is bad news. It is your scenario A which suggest a problem with the pump. I have two questions for you. 1) Can you help me finding what all scenarios can trigger this pump code? 2) If in fact the pump is bad I will not replace it becaues it is not worth putting that much money in a car of this age. I would just drive it without ABS which according to the manual is fine. However, is there a way to disable the light permanently? It is very annoying driving with it on especially at night. I read there is a way to get it disabled using the park brake for the first 30 seconds but that is inconvenient too as it would have to be done every time the car is started. Any suggestion/help would be appreciated. Thanks jasguild |
