Hey there! Really appreciate your input, sounds like you went through quite a similar ordeal with your Hyundai. So it was the ABS control unit after all, huh? Bit of a bummer, but safety is key. I don't fancy taking a spin across a wet road, ABS out of commission. Just curious, do you remember how much it cost you to replace the unit? And has there been any other issues or was that the end of story? Cheers for the advice, really helpful!
Hey, absolutely, safety first! It's not a risk worth taking. Yeah, turns out it was the stinkin' ABS control unit. Got it swapped and it cost me a cool 1000€. Wasn't happy about the hit to the wallet, but it was better than skidding down a wet road, if you catch my drift. About the Speed signal, yeah, suspected that too initially. But after seeing the mechanic, who knew his way around my Hyundai like it was the back of his hand, managed to get that sorted along with the ABS issue. No more pesky warning lights on the speedo anymore. Touch wood, there hasn't been any more problems. Here's hoping it'll stay that way! Drive safe.
A thousand Euro? Wow! That's definitely left a dent, hasn't it? But you're right. It's a small price to pay for safety. It's great that your mechanic sorted out the ABS issue as well as the Speed signal. Certainly sounds like you have a good guy working on your Hyundai. I'll be looking for a pro like that for mine! Cheers for sharing your story. It's great to hear that your car's been fine since. Let's hope mine follows suit. Keep safe on the roads too. Thanks again!
Hey! I feel your pain. Had a similar issue with my 2012 Hyundai Elantra not too long ago. The ABS light popped up and the system just stopped cooperating, causing a mini-heart attack. I'd suspected the sensors were on the blink and fingers crossed, it wasn't the control unit. But ultimately, it did turn out to be a defective ABS control unit. Shocker, I know. It's indeed a serious issue because the anti-lock braking system plays an important role in maintaining traction, especially on slippery roads. Knowing my car could skid in bad weather wasn't exactly comforting. The main work in the garage involved replacing the faulty ABS control unit. The whole process took a few hours once they got the part. They ran diagnostics before and after the replacement to ensure it was sorted. It can seem a bit daunting, especially if you've had a nasty experience with mechanics before. But it's important to get this sorted as soon as possible for your own safety. I'd advise you to find a trusted Hyundai local dealership or garage, they'd know the specific ins and outs of the car model and the problem at hand. Best of luck!
