[W126 Coupe] 560SEC ABS

[Mike Kelly]

Jonathon,

'86 here doesn't have SRS, [no air bag or seatbelt tensioner]. They are in
my '89 560SEC along with traction control, snow chain switch and 'S'tandard
'E'connomy gear switch.

'86 560 SEL

'86 928S Porsche

'02 Audi A8L

Sounds like the SRS control unit is on it's way out.

Hi chaps,

My '86 560SEL [my SEC is fine at the moment] ABS light stays on 'sometimes'
when I start the car. Not always, in fact most of the time it doesn't, it
goes out as soon as the motor starts, as it should.

When it does stay on however, if I turn the motor off straight away and
restart it immediately, it goes out like nothing was ever wrong.

Can someone tell me where to start looking for the fault?
