ABS Trac Lights 850

Here we go again with this issue. On occasion both of these lights go on the dash. Braking is not compromised. I find that when I turn the car off, they reset and stay off. What codes should I be looking for or should I just keep doing the key-off reset.

thanks

    The blinking lights are an indication that a fault has been found and a corresponding code has been stored. Read the code and go from their...if you are lucky, it's nothing more then a faulty sensor at one of the wheels.

    I had the same problem a year ago. I was famous ABS module. I went to dealer. Than I did not know about this side so I paid over $700.00 in Chicago. You can buy new and put it yourself. I have also seen some post that somewhere they repair these modules and give you instruction how to remove it and put it back.
    Dealer price is close to $500 for part, but I have seen cheaper $340.00(new) on the internet. I do not remember where, but I will check. If I find it I will let you know.

      I'm the one who repairs the controllers.
      Your 1995 does not have the faulty designed controller as the 96 and newer do.
      I have a 95 850T with over 200k and no ABS problems, my 98 V70 is what got me into repairing the controllers.
      To this day I have not repaired an ABS controller for a 95 or earlier model.
      Make sure your sensors, wiring and connectors are OK before you blame the controller.
