Hi all
09. Apr 2008 at 14:09

Yep, another newbie without a clue. Worse still I don't even know the full info on the Omega I bought. Found the site when I was searching for answers on a problem I had and lo....everyone else gets it too, the ubiquitous ABS ECU fault.
All I can tell you about the car is that it is 1999 2.5 V6 CDX Automatic with 'all the fruit' as the guy selling it said. Oh, and it's been converted to LPG. That was the main reason for buying it as my previous car is to be chopped up into a trike (don't get me started there is a character limit on posts).
As I learn more about it I will update my profile, and once I have tidied it up I may even post a photo of it.

ps....where is the ABS ECU? Looked through all the info I can find but don't want to pull bits off without being sure it's the right one.

pps...yes I do know that little about it but it was seriously cheap. I paid less than the LPG kit is worth if I want to move it to a different car.

Recently 'learned up' and being more careful now, honestly.
Ummm except for where I fix one thing and break something else

Hi Welcome to the forum.

The ABS Ecu is on the right hand side of the engine compartment looking from the front of the car. It is buried in the area between the Power steering reservoir and the battery. As someone else said you will get a better response if you post your Questions in the general or electrical sections for example.

There is a search facility and you will find quite a bit of info on this problem. Fiddly but do able.

Finished breaking the red mfl Elite saloon in Spain. Got a shed load of stuff. Will post parts.
