Sounds more like your abs ecu is broken

There are repair services, you get one from the same engine / gearbox type of a breaker.

If no fault codes, it will be the usual ABS ECU failure

Hi, I have the exact same problem with my 2000 3.0 Mv6 >:(, local garage and vxl dealer could not get any code reading, vxl wanted £700+ for supply and fit new abs ecu, tried a new rear abs sensor but no luck, getting a front to try but I think the abs ecu is faulty, found local garage that will take it off for £40 (good I thought) as VXL wanted £300 labour!!!, then sending ecu for repair quote, will post result when done!!

Cheers, Mark :y
