Trouble Light 850 1997

I have two trouble signals lighting up my dash on a regular basis.ABS and TracsOFF...At the same time I hear this winding sound? What should I look for!

The easy guess is an ABS module problem. The TRACS (traction control) uses the ABS system to control wheelspin.

Victor Rocha is a fellow who repairs and improves them at a fraction of the cost of a new one. There's also an independent shop in Mississauga, Ontario that is repairing them.

There may be others that I don't know about.

+1 on the module being bad.
+10 on Victor rebuilding your module
Priceless, the peace of mind that follows!
