Question ABS not working??

The problem I am having is that in wet weather if I get on the brakes (medium pressure or more) all four tires will lock up and I will go for a fun slide til I let off the brakes. At times on dry pavement they will lock up too. I still have plenty of tread left on the tires so that shouldn't be the cause. And they are Aquaflow tires, so in theory they should be descent for wet pavement!! Do you guys have the same issue with your cars or could this be an ABS issue? Thanks

Re: ABS not working??

It sounds like your abs is not working, Is the ABS INOP light on on your dash?

No, the light isn't on. Someone was telling me I should check the abs fuse out. I think I'll try that.

Mine does the exact same thing. I wanna figure out what is up. I have almost been killed from it also, in the rain one time. But only my front's lock up. And I dont have an ABS light on.

Re: ABS not working??

Whats an accumulator? Somebody told me I might have a bad jumper, but that seems like it would cause the ASB INOP light to come in, atleast I think it would.

All the brake lines go to the ABS module as you can see in the attached photo courtesy of Shoebox
