Bongo Fury

Hi all,

Any ideas on where to start with the above? Are there sensors or similar that may just need a clean?

Regards

ABS sensors on each hub so may be worth checking for corroded / cracked rings or damaged wiring.

The diagnostic connector should be able to tell you which one or what is causing the problem see http://www.philmcfadden.co.uk/MazdaDiagnosticBox.htm

Hi Guys and thanks for replies...the diagnostic connector, never ocurred to me, what kit do I need to connect it up and start playing, is there a simple guide I can follow?

Kind Regards,

Well all the info you need is on the link above! A wire link and a lamp, oh and a working set of eyeballs to count the flashes!

seeing as there has been a tad of water about check all the plugs and connections as a short could put the light on. check the ones on the abs unit too. dont forget the obvious fuses first.

Many thanks for the replies... I will post my resolution in the near future!

LED Stop bulbs will cause this too, so if you have fitted them, try normal bulbs to see if that's the issue.

My V6 had the ABS bulb removed to mask a fault (An MOT failure) ..

Never had any luck sussing out issues with the diagnostic plug .. so checked the resistance of the four wheel sensors with a multi meter .. all spot on .. put 12v direct to the ABS pump .. that worked fine .. more by luck .. found a multi pin connector under the plastic coolant tank (by the ABS pump) was not fully 'clicked' home ..

hi all

I had the same problem - abs flickering then stayed on permanently

although an mot failure - and as long as you take your time and not drive up others backsides - don't panic and rush into things

luckily my bro in law ( mechanic ) had one of those boxes where you plug in

I do not think the bongo was listed but we picked a bongo mpv and it indicated front left abs

I have just realised I have deleted the shortcut to the company I got a spare from - I am sure it was George at bongo spares

they sent me a whole hub with the abs unit on

plugged her in - just to check before stripping - and hey bongo - pardon the pun - light went out

bongo spares did also state that if it didn't work - and the light stayed on - I could get a full refund

but worked 1st time - if all the connectors are the same on all wheels - I understand that all hubs are not the same - just as a fault finding exercise

swap all hub connectors and find out if the light goes out - if one does - job done - get the right hub if you havnt been lucky enough to get the right one

if you can afford it - buy all 4 and send the 3 others back -

buy the way - do not try to remove the abs unit - very prone to breaking - that's why they send the hub etc

I didn't want the new - rusty one on my van - but had no choice - lol - as soon as the light went out - I wasn't too fused lol

hopefully you get it sorted

cheers
