Default ABS failure fixed

Was taken aback yesterday when I had to brake hard due to an emergency and all wheels locked up screetching and I was only travelling about 90 kph. Funny thing was the ABS warning light never lit up so I thought it was okay. I knew the ABS wasn't working and searched the archives of RL. Cleaned the sensors today, accelerometer and bled it.

Mission accomplished and did a few hard braking tests. Wheels pulsed and did not screetch but smoked a lot from braking hard.

Now I can continue with my project knowing I got good brakes.

Hello.. I race a 996 carrera and when you brake really late the pedal gets really stiff to the point that it doesnt want to brake going out of the road. Any suggestions??
