Default 97 ABS sensitive

Hi,

I have a '97 Explorer in the UK.

For the last 2 years I have hardly seen my ABS work, suddenly it is there
all the time.

Allways at 2-3 mph as i turn left, brdrdrdrdrdrdrrdr, no brakes and the car
pulls right!

The local dealer looked at it and said they couldnt reproduce the problem.
On the way home it happened again on a 'high grip' non slip surface at a
junction!

Is this a known prob?

Terry

Check the speed sensors on the front wheels. Mud, broken teeth, bad
connectors will all cause this.
