    Hey guys

    well i was in the wet and the usual.. i braked etc but the light only just came on afterwards, or maybe i noticed late. turned the engine off and on. still it was on..

    the abs is buzzing and i thought id check if it was hot - and that it was.

    If in doubt, check you haven't pulled the wrong fuse lol. The fuses sit at different levels so in the dark you may be skipping a column of fuses.

    Your abs actuator has a problem, I had the same issue and pulled my fuse too - 1 year later and no problems. Not the best driving around with no abs, but you will stop quicker! Just don't slam on the brakes until you know it's new limits :thumbup:
