I have an ABS issue, when pulling up to a stop or turning into a parking space the ABS kicks in.
I noticed it does it under the following circumstances:
1. Vehicle is moving slower than 10 MPH
2. It doesn't matter if I am going straight or turning
3. It doesn't do it all the time (probably 90% of the time though)
4. When it does happen if I quickly let off brake and then reapply them it goes away
5. No ABS light on
6. Brakes were changed some time ago but have plenty of pad life left
I thought maybe it was because I needed to have my ball joints replaced but it still does it after replacement. I read an earlier thread where some people have had luck dickering with the ABS sensor, but I am unsure how to tell which wheel it is. It seems like the front driver's wheel but I think that's only because that's where the master cylider and ABS hardware is.
Any thoughts? Would the tires being low on air cause this? I just checked them and they're all between 35 and 38 PSI.
