vibration and ABS/trac light 850 1997

posted by  someone claiming to be Dave on  Wed Dec 19 21:34 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I have a 97 850 T-5 with about 50k on it. Every once in a while the abs and trac off light comes on. I put a little brake fluid in once and it went away but it seems to be occuring more frequently. Also, you can barely feel the vibration in the steering wheel and I would have never noticed except I had the windows open and there is an audible thump thump thump that seems to be coming from the rear at freeway speeds. I had the tires rebalanced and rotated but its still there. Are these related or separate problems, any ideas? thanks

My S70T5 required a new ABS/TRACS control module at 70K, and it's a known issue. There are other possible causes you should check out first (bad or fouled sensor, faulty switch).
