I don't think anyone has it but a dealer. And I guess you tried the easy fixes like moving sensor wires away from spark plugs?

yeah, i've cleaned every connnection i could find, grounds, replaced the rear sensor, brake light bulbs, moved plug wires around, bled tje brakes a dozen times. before, the abs inop, low traction and e-brake lights would all come on for a second, then go off intermitenly while driving, then the abs starting to kick in, pumping at parking lot speeds, and now after about 2 years all the lights are always on, and no abs. the pedal feels more firm than normal, but still stops ok in normal traffic, but panic stops suck, and will barely lock the wheels. and in the rain, i have to ride the brakes a little to warm the rotors up, otherwise there's a huge delay before it starts to stop. reminds me of driving my friends duster with 4 wheel manual brakes. scary. i have another abs "brain", but i'd like to get it checked out before i go through the trouble of putting it in.
