Brakes..Low Trac..ABS INOP..Need some help

[Fusion]

Well my car has been acting funny lately. When i start her up in the morning and come to the first two stopsigns by my house i press the brakes but as im pressing they seem to give and the Low Trac light comes on. It seems to do it alot. Its like i brake low trac light comes on seems like have to press the brake harder and then it stops. If i press the brake firmer after the lOw trac light is on it goes into ABS INOP and it is fine and the ABS INOP stays on and my car doesn't do low trac anymore. Any thoughts as to why this could be?

Might be your master cylinder or a line or such.

My car does this too, sometimes.
The brake tends to go in more when the light comes on. I've taken my car to my mechanic, and had no idea.

Anyone have this problem??

[Justin96Bird]

have you checked the brake fluid level?

[Fusion]

Yep, brake fluid is just fine. I'm thinking that maybe the pads are getting low or something. I'm gonna go to a brake place soon. NOT "Just brakes" Dont go there [img]smile.gif[/img] Alright anyone else with some insight?

[Ahzie99]

It's not the pads either, I got them replaced, but still had the same problem. The mechanic told me I should go to the dealer, but I have to drop my car in the early morning, and they rip you off like a mo fo. My mechanic guess it might be the air bubble in the brake line, but still can't figure out why.

How's your suspension? I have bad springs and maybe it's due to uneven weigh ratio on each wheels?

I'm getting new springs... they're on the way.

I had the same problem. I was told by my mechanic that the abs modules are known to go bad after a while and a new one would run somewhere around 1000-1500. I just pulled the fuses to get rid of the annoying flashing of the abs inop and low trac lights, and besides I like my car better w/out ABS. Just have to be careful in the rain.

Replug your ABS sensors by the front wheels. They might be loose.

[Ahzie99]

where is the ABS sensor? How does it look like?
Thanks

[Fusion]

It only happens in the morning's from what I can tell. Its a pain..Were is the ABS sensor wire. I looked around the wheel and wheel well and didn't see anything. Please Advise

[Fusion]

So does anyone know where the sensor wire is?

[DominusEtDeusNatus]

One to each front wheel and one on the pumpking. The one on the pumpkin is bolted in so that's probably not it.

Something else you could check is your tires. If they are bald and/or your rotors are warped, you might actually be sliding a tire when you come to those stop signs. Tires don't grip very well when they are cold.

[Ahzie99]

Although it feels like my car is sliding when the ABS light comes on, I don't think i'm actually sliding... cause my break pedal goes down. Besides, my tires are fairly new.

Thanks,

My tires are brand new Toyo Proxes big beast tires [img]smile.gif[/img] Z rated...It also guys makes a Noise when my windows are down i can hear it when i press the break its like a squeaky low noise and like a cracking kinda.. THis cant be good.
