Hi All,

R33 S2

I've had my ABS light on for a few years now and whilst did try and diagnose the issue I suspect its a faulty abs pump.

It's never bothered me but this year they have picked it up on my rego check!!

Does anyone know of an easy way to disable the light without me waiting for a replacement abs pump??

cheers

I had the exact same problem 2 weeks ago for my rego and the mechanic couldnt get a cheap pump anywhere so i looked at the solenoids attached to the abs unit. It was $90 all up and it solved the problem the pump was fine. Im glad i looked at the relay when i did mine it was alot cheaper than replacing a perfectly fine abs pump!

it's not the pump, just replace the relays on the pump...

I went to a wrecking yard and picked it up for $30, they always die on R33s..

if you have a proper solder vacuum you should be able to desolder them and replace them with relayed from JayCar... I tried with a normal soldering iron and desolder hand pump.. that failed.. so I just bought a used relay box.

3x plugs 1x 8mm bolt 5 minute replacement.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
