ABS!!, agh Options

[RobXcore]

Firstly, hey everyone, im new here,
I own 2x 6G celicas,
A red ST, (i abused on kinda off road strips)
and a White GT, im currently modding out.


Well, i have a problem with my abs, i know were not all engineers, i generally do most jobs on the car, myself with the help of some semi-mechanics for free..


Well, my abs motor wont start as i start the car, i have checked, relays, fuses, power in, power out, earthing, each connector on both in/out cables. tested the motor in my red celica and it works fine :S

hmm, any idea's, or if theres any celica heads, near nottingham UK, with any more DIY knowledge (or a fault reader) id love it.

Im trying to avoid using a garage for anything, since im skint, id prefer to do things the long way than the expensive way.. else id own a lambo tyvm.



Sorry if im misusing the forum here,

like i said '''new'''

Ill have some pics of my ride up soon, hoping to meet a good few ppl up here.
:]

oh and to point out, my breaks arent working :]
they are spongey all the way to the floor, before offering any form of slowing down, i have to pump and keep them at the bottom, to make sure i stop..
((also, new master cylinder, checked servo/pipes/fuses/relays/etc

I had the same problem with my ABS light. My brakes were
spongy and I had to pump them. I bled the system and it
seemed like there wasn't any air in there...then I bleed the
system again. A hardcore bleeding session and I had big
pockets of air in my rear lines that didn't appear to be there
before. They're fine now.

Are your calipers cool? To be honest, I'm not sure if that has
anything to do with your situation..but I had another ABS problem
a few years ago and it was a problem with my front, driver's
side plunger.

I'm sure someone who's better informed in the brake department
can better determine what your problem might be. I'm just letting
you know of a similar experience I had.
