As I have said before the ABS light is on permanently in the 25G.Also the hand brake has been disconnected because it would not release.Ithas been this way for a couple of months.

Today after about 2k of driving, after stopping and turning key off, heard a strange buzzing coming from under the hood. On looking the buzz was found to be coming from the ABS unit. Turned the key to the on position and it stopped. Turned off and still stopped but then came on again. Its at it all the time even with engine running. It stops if I pull the outer 30 amp in the box under the hood. Have checked the in car fuse and it's OK. System has Castrol DOT4 fluid.

Any assistance will be appreciated.

I think the only way we are going to debug this is if I come past and plug the diagun into the car. is it visually throwing codes at all?

No the only thing I know is the ABS light has been on for yonks, before I did the upgrade. The buzzing arrived uninvited.Since pulling the fuses, front brakes can be locked. Pardon my ignorance but are there sensors on the rears of a RWD, or 4WD for that matter.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
