I think most of us have had this problem from time to time. I've had nagging ABS issues with both my Beemers<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" /> . The problem is the light comes on during critical times when you don't dare drive without ABS like during the rain etc. Sometimes I turn the engine off and the light goes off during next start but lately the lights stay ON more often than not. The diagnostic tool points to "ABS relay" and I have put it off for too long. I'm thinking of changing the ABS control block (since the relay can't be replaced individually<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite5" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":confused:" /> ) and was advised by my mechanic to get a used one (with warranty). I drive a '97 e39 523i. Anybody have experience with used ABS control block? How much would the price differ between a used and a new one? Appreciate any feedback. Cheers.</p></blockquote><p></p>
