Title: ABS LED Bulb
Post by: Asbo Sovfinger on 10 July 2009, 17:41

Hey all,

Anyone know what LED is need for the ABS light?  The bulb in mine appears to have been crushed so needs replacing.

Cheers, Ed

Thats the start of bad things, someone has crushed it for a reason...i.e ABS light is on.

Good luck with that,

its easier to replace the unit, take the old unit out and it will have a part number on the side, type that into ebay and some should come up, got one  last week for a tenner

my bulb has actually blown for some reason, you carnt change the bulb on its own as its attached to its housing which is soldered to the board. best bet is as said change the whole unit, unless you have your own LEDs lying about and a solder iron

My abs light does not come on at all. Do you think I need one of these also?
