What have you done to your Zed today?

I didnt really check till today...there is no light on my dash that says ABS when the key is turned...plus when i doing the evasive driving skill task, there was no ABS As i could see the difference with and without ABS in the other cars...would it be possible it was removed? Anyway i can check if my zed has/had ABS?

Finished Fixing my left hand side guard, Replaced my K&N pod with an APEXi and re-did my tyres.

 

f firstly getting your ABS dashlight to come on with Ignition in the "on" position. 2 Fuses for the ABS- 15amp- feeds to the ABS Control Unit and ABS Actuator Unit and a 10amp, which feeds to the Dash ABS light.

Have you checked these fuses first?

 

Spent the best part of my only day off with Eric/ A2Zed underneath my 2+2, trying to replace a blown clutch line..... only to find that the Master Cylinder needs re-kitting.

The pleasant odour of some road kill I must have driven over while out in the sticks made for a pleasant addition to a failed mission.

Called painter.... respray in the NA STILL ISNT DONE. Coming onto 3 months now

Big thanks to Eric for taking a Sunday out to assist. His efforts are about the only positive outcome in my 300regret ownership today.

 

I had replaced all fuses in my zed a month or so back with glow up fuses....none are light up

I did have the key in "on" position but no ABS light

Have you checked to see if you have an ABS unit at all?

 

Nope...whereabouts is it located on the zed? Got a pic of what it should look like? Mine is a 2 seater...

Abraham

 

Have you got one of these?

 

Behind the driver's seat under the trim, great big spidery looking thing with lots of little hard lines going in and out of it. Don't have any pictures handy.

 

ABS unit on a 2+0 is behind the drivers seat. There is a comprehensive ABS diagnostic in the owners manual for it. Recall that there is a fuse itself on the ABS unit.

Without the ABS dashlight, cannot go through the diagnostic sequence.

 

Rob mine is a 2+0...

frysie i dont have that in my zed...as i got that boot trim off as i got my rear strut brace on and havnt modfied the trim piece to fit

It doesnt look like it has any holes drilled in that area of where it should be...plus the little box section that comes off the panel behind my drivers seat is solid and nothing there...

OZX...does that mean the pic that frysie posted up is for a 2+2? Anybody got a pic of what it looks in a 2+0?

My zed is a 92...so not sure whats going on here

Abraham

 

frysie's pic is for a 2+2. 2+0 is same looking unit, different location. Trim piece directly behind drivers side seat has that velcro panel on it. Behind is the ABS unit. Dont know what kind of access the panel allows, or if you have to remove the trim piece for proper access

 

Not the best picture but you can see here were it is on a 2 seater:

 

Cool thanks...ill have a look tommorow. If i remember correctly the last time i removed the velcro panel it was just a flat steel panel behind it...dont remember seeing anything there

Anybody got any pics of what it should be looking like on a 2+0? Like location or if i need to somehow remove the steel panel...

Abraham

 

heres a write-up with location:

Just had a quick look...its not there There doesnt seem to be any holes or anything where it is meant to be

Plus when i removed the velcro panel...it is a steel section behind it that doesnt look like it can be removed and looks like it is part of the body

Pull the plastic 'bubble' off that sits beside the parcel shelf, you goose. It's under that.

Use a screwdriver to prise it up- there is a notch to make it easier in a few places along the parcel shelf side.

 

Only NA to november 89 had no abs, everyone else got them.
