Abs Pump Motor Running - Land Rovers Only

honybears · 03-02-2006, 04:58 PM

A few hours after using the disco my wife came into the house to tell me there was a strange noise comming from under the hood. As it turns out the motor on the abs pump was running. I disconnected the plug to stop it. Does anybody know what the problem might be and the fix? 94 D1: rellye

There are a few possibilitys, all of which should really be checked out by a mechanic.
Don't let the pump run too long getting it to a shop or you will be replacing that also, BIG$$$$$'s

Does anyone know whether the truck can be driven safely with the electrical connection to the abs motor disconnected?

easy, replace the abs relay. located under the glove box in the drop down relay panel, it should be the first relay on the left (5 wire black plug).
or you have a serious abs valve block failure.

also if you have a good firm pedal and the brakes function good,you can drive it without the pump plugged in. why not?
good luck
