  • ABS cancel on ABY

    Following on from this thread.

    http://www.s2forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=41076

    As some of you may be aware I have a 1995 ABY avant which had the ABS cancel switch fitted when I brought it and it works

    A bit of reverse engineering and I have worked out how



    The switch bridges out the Brown + Brown/Black wires to the smaller connector on the back of the diff lock switch.



    The result is A perfect ABS cancel !




    When the cancel is active the green light on the diff lock switch is illuminated however this dose not lock the diff.



    cheers

            Jas11n added the ABS switch to his ABY coupe back in 07.

                        This isn't news though - all this does is fool the ABS controller into thinking the difflock button has been pressed - and ABS is turned off. Tis an elegant way to do it alright.

                          I did that to my ABy converted Coupe.....

                          I used older 7A wiring diagrams showing the ABS cancel. From my 7A Coupe I took the complete ABS dash wiring from a parted out Coupe 7A dash loom and patched it into the ABY dash loom using the diagrams. Basically made it a factory like installation. It works flawlessly and looks totally stock.

                              You can just remove the bulb from the dash.
