We have had ongoing problems with the ABS system in our 95 940T wagon with 110K miles. The codes are for the Rear Speed Sensor, but that was replaced with no imrovement. The mechanic checked out the wiring today but could find no problems, so he says it must be the ABS control module. He is not trying to make extra money because his recommendation was to live with it.

The problem we have is that the system activates often at slow stops, and after doing this a few times it shuts itself off. Generally you can't drive more than about 15 minutes around the city before the ABS light comes on. I would like to get this fixed before the winter.

I emailed Victor Rocha who was highly recommened on this board, but he said problems with the ABS Module in a 95 940 are unlikely.

I don't have another mechanic I could use, but I could take it to the Volvo dealer. Maybe they would be more familiar with the specific problems in this vintage car?

If we assume it is not the control module, and the rear sensor is new, would it make sense to replace the whole wire between the two? What would be involved in replacing this?
