Hello, 

I have a full stock r34 gtr however the brakes locked.

Brakes are fine (pedal feels good), I had to go over 90km h under rain to make it locked.

no brake leakage and brake fluid level is ok.

I'm using used (good conditions) winter tyres.

abs goes on and off after ignition is switch on.

I had a fault code 72 that I clear and it didnt get back.This fault code was relating to TPS (MFD show correctly the TP) I also checked the TPS signal on the abs connector and voltage is within spec (0.5 - 4v)

I checked the wheel sensors from the connector of the abs module I got values (using a cheap chinese ohmeter) between -0.5k and +8k (depends at which speed I turn the wheel ) with average/rest at 1.2k 

during the wheel sensors signal measurements; I moved/shake the wheel sensors wires/connectors to make sure there is no short or open in the loom/connector/sensor.

I'm out of idea ? can it be a relay ? fuses ?

best regards

Thanks for your answer however now I'm out of idea...

 

I have performed the following tests :

- continuity test between the wiring of the abs pump and the abs ECU

- ring abs sensor are in good condition and have the correct number of teeth (46)

- all fuses are ok

- tyres are globally in same condition; is within +/- 10mm

 

- I have electrically disconnected the abs pump to test it :

* relay are ok (80 ohms and I can "hear" them when I powered them)

* solenoid valves seems ok (4 ohms or 8 ohms and consummes 1.5A or 3A; it will depends if it's an inlet or outlet)

* the abs motor is working

 

My questions :

- I have a front limited diff slip, is it possible that's making some trouble with the ABS ?

- should I open the abs pump to check the valves ?

- should I go for new tyres ?

- where can I found the software to use with nissan consult to connect to the abs ECU (so that I could log some infos)

 

Any other idea maybe ?

 

Thanks for your time

so I have bleed the entire system and the wheels are still locking

I have dixcel m or z type brake pads (I dont know if that could be an issue somehow )

I have order a consult 1 we will see
if I am still getting into trouble I will change the master brake cylinder, abs pump and abs control unit ...

best regards

I finally got a (german) consult

I was able to do the active test with success (meaning the abs pump should be ok)

the wheel data seems to be ok too, they are between +/-1kmh between each other and they are matching the real speed.

I was not able to do the self diagnostic with the consult; I might do something wrong in the process I guess (see picture)

I'm suspecting some solenoids being blocked as my wheels are still locking (my feeling is it seems to be the front only ) so I will dissasemble the pump
I have made a test this morning (7am at 1 degre; the road was dry but we some humidity on it; sorry I don't get the english word for it )

you can clearly see from the picture that my abs control seems to react correctly !
 

if the solenoids valve are in good cobdition, I will put everything back to stock :

  • no winter tyres
  • OEM pads
  • new flexible hoses (avionic )
  • new brake master


thanks

So to conclude,

My assumption was false, based on the curves I provided we can see that the wheels has locked but the ABS release some pressure to unlock them...

Replacing the winter tyres by some regular tyres give a much better feeling too (but I don't think it was necessary)

So at the end, a bleed of the system + some cleaning on the calipers (with a lot of WD40) seems to have done the trick....yes it was such simple

French test has been passed with success this time

I can finally drive legally in a few weeks hopefully

THanks for having a look into my problem.

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
