I noticed tonight a red light flashed up on my dash and was just wondering what it was,

I didn't have time to look to see what it was, it just flashed once as I was hard under brakes in the wet

and the only thing I could think of was that it might be a light for abs the red light flashed up over

on the right side near where the oil and battery light is,

but mine is only a series 1.5 If thats what you call them its a late 95 model so has series 2 spoiler and such,

I didn't think these had abs can anyone tell me if series 1.5 had abs? how can you tell

Iv'e had my car all locked up before when braking so don't know? if its not abs light what else could it be?

any ideas?

In answer to topic title, if you have ABS, the car won't like up like made under hard braking, and the pedal will pulsate under hard braking.

You can also check the lines running from your brake master cylinder and trace where they run, if they run into another unit before going to the calipers you have ABS. If they run straight to the calipers from the BMC, you do not have ABS. OR easier still, if you have two lines coming out of your BMC you have ABS, if you have three lines you do not have ABS.

i had an R33 for about 2 months (loaner) and a light flashed on every time i braked hard. turns out it was the oil pressure dropping........

but check oil level, brake fluid level and probably PS fluid level. its probably moving and the sensor thinks its too low as it all gets pushed to the front
