12-03-08 Snow!!!

Maybe I should try to get ABS working again...

Nah, delete the ABS, and get snow tires instead. It'll make way more difference.

Iowa has been like snow heaven this past week, but it sucks parking outside and having to brush my car off. Better than ice I suppose. The roads are all snow packed here, drifting opportunity literally at ever corner.

The ABS on the 1Gs is useless.

Yeah, I noticed that pretty much every Iowa city sucks at getting their roads plowed before they get too heavily trafficked for it to do any good.

Barely a dusting in St. Louis Park/Hopkins.

1G ABS is junk; pull the fuse for it.

[JET]

Not a flake in Ham Lake/Blaine.

Kinda OT: Did the 1995 GSX's come with ABS? How would i know if i have it?

[asshanson]

You probably have ABS. Slam on the brakes in the snow and see if it kicks in! But I guess you don't have snow... nevermind.

In the driver's side front fender there should be an ABS box with a bunch of brake lines running in and out of it, it's silver and sits near the AC dryer/canister. You'll also see the lines running in the engine bay near the cam gears that go to the ABS box. On startup you should also see the ABS light flash for a second and turn off.

Even stopping fast on dry pavement should activate abs, you will feel it. You will just slide if it isnt working.

I've been under the impression that all 2g AWDs had ABS standard.

I locked up the front wheel on my bike on the snow the other day. :)

Slammed my face into the ground and slid into traffic.

I LOVE SNOW!!
