SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK:ABS WARNING LIGHT
2000 AUDI S4 ABS COMPUTER MODULE IS DEFECTIVE. CODE 01203. THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT FLASH AND BEEP ALL OF THE TIME FOR NO REASON. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE ABS UNITS. AOA HAS NOT FILLED A SAFETY RECALL FOR HTIS ITEM YET. WE NEED TO HAVE A SAFETY RECALL FOR THE ABS COMPUTER/MODULE DUE TO POTENTIAL ACCIDENTS WHEN WHEELS LOCK UP AND CAR SKIDS OUT OF CONTROL. NUMEROUS OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT ABS PROBLEMS AND ACCIDENTS HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED DUE TO ABS FAILURE. IT IS A SIMPLE FIX BUT PART COSTS $1K ALONE NOT INCLUDING LABOR. LOOKED ON FORUMS, IT SEEMS TO BE A SIMPLE WIRING FIX INSIDE OF MODULE (APPARENTLY THERE IS A POOR STANDARD OF CRAFTSMANSHIP IN THE SOLDERING). *AK
