Re: 1994 Legacy GT wagon
the only one with the raised roof was the GT to my knowledge. my Mi alpine sport does not have a raised roof, and ive seen the Ti in person also. sunsport has a moonroof, so i doubt it has a raised roof as well. I have a 1994 dealer brochure, and none of the wagons pictured (Alpine Sport, Outdoor, ...

Re: ABS pulses at startup and when stopped?
It might be worth taking a look at each of the four wheel sensors to make sure the harness is intact; if it's not, the ABS computer might be reading phantom pulses. In particular, I'd inspect the left front sensor, because the harness is bolted to the strut and maybe when the strut broke it damaged...

Re: ABS pulses at startup and when stopped?
Does the ABS hydraulic unit under the dash have two bleeder nipples on it? If not, I'm wrong about what system you've got. Ahh, yes, I forgot that there were several different ABS systems. Mine is a Nippon unit, and it looks like the third picture in this thread: http://bbs.legacycentral.org/viewto...

Re: ABS pulses at startup and when stopped?
If the ABS light isn't on, I don't think the ABS computer will be flashing any codes. It's really weird that the ABS pump would do anything with the car stopped. ... and now that I've found the computer, unfortunately I have to report that you are correct. :( I put the fuse back in, started it up, ...

Re: ABS pulses at startup and when stopped?
The ABS computer should be under the passenger seat along the frame rail facing the door. Did you find it there? I believe there's a little flap of carpet that you can lift up and see the LED. Found it!! :D So there were two things that tripped me up. One was that the bump for the ABS computer real...

Re: ABS pulses at startup and when stopped?
Fluid level is good, pretty much all the way to the top. I haven't checked the pads yet, but the brakes don't make any noise and they stop the car well. It did sit for a while before I bought it. When I picked it up, the car had a collapsed front suspension, with the left strut spring broken, and th...

Re: ABS pulses at startup and when stopped?
Do you have a multi-meter, and are you knowledgeable in checking wiring and reading wiring diagrams? Yep, for the most part. :wink: I've been reading through the '92 FSM (Thanks! :D), but I'm pretty much stuck since I didn't find the ABS computer. :wink: So I think I'll have to find it, before I ev...

Re: ABS pulses at startup and when stopped?
Welcome to the BBS. Thanks. I've been lurking here for years, figure I might as well sign up and participate. :-D You mentioned your 94 GT is a MT. I'm not sure if those models came with a MT in stock trim. Do you know if the car originally came with the MT or was it swapped in? If you don't know I...

Re: ABS pulses at startup and when stopped?
Oh, and I have read a lot about the ABS relay going bad. From what I can tell though, the car doesn't have those symptoms. The pump doesn't run when the car is off, and the battery isn't going flat when I leave it for a while.
I'm not sure that this completely rules out the relay though...

ABS pulses at startup and when stopped?
Hello everyone. My new-to-me '94 GT wagon (manual trans) has a strange ABS issue, and despite searching through dozens and dozens of ABS-related threads, I can't find that anyone else has had this same problem... :| When I start the car, with my foot on the brake pedal, the ABS pump will kick in a f...
