It was exactly this problem that lead me to finding OOF ... I was desperately searching for info to avoid the £700 parts bill .. and labour on top ..

My googling found this

http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1152729807

and one thing lead to another ......  

so I don't know if there is any info in there that might help you ..

Deffo your ABS ECU breaked m8 :(  Replacement -


Please could you qualify this statement - why could it not be a sensor/wiring fault...?


Quote
Either a recon (~£130) or ex scrapper (~£40) - if the latter you need same part nş, and one off same year and model spec (otherwise you will need a tech2 session)

Barsteward of a job - poor access - but doable.

Plenty of links - search for abs ecu.

Ta - may do. *If* I can get the root cause empirically confirmed...
Lights on and no speedo is breaked abs ecu - personnel experience m8.
Replaced mine with unit from scrapper - cured.

Right. Got the unit out at the weekend.

Anyone got a unit that will fit a 2000/W 2.5 v6 petrol auto facelift (whatamouthful) for sale?

When I did mine only removed top hose.
You need same part nş which in on bottom of ecu.  Preferably from same spec motor to avoid need fot Tech 2 reprogramme.
