Anti Lock Brakes Buzzing when braking under 5 MPH
Hi Everyone,
Here is my problem. My Rodeo's ABS system kicks in (i.e. the buzzing sound), when I slow to under 5 MPH while pressing the brakes. Keep your foot on the brakes and the buzzing eventually stops, just before the car comes to a full stop under the normal braking system.
Here are a few caveats. This only happen when the ABS Light is off. If the ABS light is on, then this doesn't happen at all... you brake normally to a stop, no buzzing.
Any idea what's causing this, and what I can do to fix it? (disable ABS perhaps? If so, how to disable?
Also, I'm guessing this might be an electrical problem. Why? Here are a few other gremlins in my Rodeo:
The fuel gauge will only goto full once I top off the tank. And when that happens, the Check Engine light goes off.
After about 10 miles of driving, the fuel gauge, slowly dances back and forth between the 3/4 and empty mark, and the check engine light comes on again, and stays on until tank is refilled.
So I have to use the odometer to know when to refill.
That aside, my Isuzu has served me great over the past 20 years. No issues.
Thanks in advance.
