While in grid at the Lincoln Pro Solo on Saturday, the abs and brake warning lights came on when I started the engine. I still took my runs despite the lights being on. On the first run in the afternoon, when I applied the brakes in the first corner the car spun like I had just pulled the parking brake. The car spun again on the next 2 runs. The car did not seem driveable at an aggressive pace. Its seems fine on the street. The car was fine in the morning runs.
I would still like to take my runs on Sunday, but have no access to a mechanic or repair shop on a Saturday night. I have a feeling it may be a abs sensor or a speed sensor?? Is there a way I can disable these systems?

 

have you checked the brake fluid... i know that can trip lights, but as far as the strange responce, thats odd.... but if its really low ya never know

 

Could likely be a wheel speed sensor. The only way I know to disable the ABS is to pull the fuse under the hood, but from my experience it throws the bias way to the rear (sounds exactly like how the car is behaving now). Not sure if that would help....plus I thats not exactly HS legal, not sure if anyone would say anything in impound or not....

The brake fluid was low. I added some more, but that didn't seem to help at first. After a few on/off cycles the lights did turn off. I found a 24 hour repair shop in Lincoln that did a diagnostic scan and they didn't find anything wrong. So, we'll see what happens on Sunday
