Your ABS is nothing to do with the ECU it's brakes for goodness sake your ABS is controlled by sensors set into the hubs if you were to look under the car with a torch you would see a circle with what looks like square teeth and skimming barely a mm from them is the ABS sensor attached from that sensor is a wire and truthfully they do break and then its a sensor replacement. What kind of garages do you have up there that canna help a lassie.Hildiago69

there is a diagnostic socket that connects to your ecu and will determine what problem is causing you abs light to show fault usualy wheel pickup sensor or even a loose rear wheel bearing will cause light to come on so you need to take to any garage that has a diagnostic com. cost about £30
