Afternoon all,
Anyone any experience of interpreting the "blink" test on the ABS?
Possibly unrelated, but my motor won't run at the moment (fires a bit, but won't catch and run!) even from a jump start, new battery and plugs :-( Behaves bit like it is flooding, as in days of yore when cars had manual chokes!!!
Have no EML illuminated and the fuel pump primes and there is a good spark...
Decided to see if it might help by completing the OBD blink test, just in case there is something I am overlooking - Link sockets connected, all lamps illuminate as per normal when turn the ignition on EML illuminates with all the others - oil pressure etc, however the ABS lamp flashes. It is not as easy to interpret as it looks though! I think there is one long blink followed by six short blinks.
I'd be most grateful if a fellow forum member knows where these ABS fault codes are for DC5. Car is of 2002 vintage. Maybe completely unrelated, but are there any faults recorded by the ABS system that could contribute to the non-starting headache?
Thanks in advance!
Tip for anyone planning this it is easy to do, but suggest use a paperclip the link pin sockets are tiny!
