Hi all, My car has an ABS light on and the mechanic is looking for the module. He has tried the usual places but still cannot find it. It is a 1997 16V, anyone give me some idea where it could be so i can get my car out of the garage. All the best.

Simon, has my two spare “Blue Boxes” to try/ re-place the Thermal Fuse so one of them may be available. On an Exchange basis

The Blue Box,It's right under the dash , drivers (right side) almost about where the front wheel is. Drivers seat out and lay on your back. 3 brass bolts to undo, 3rd bolt is a swine to access.
I've a known working spare that I removed from a breaker , but they are like rocking horse poo to get hold of hence why I keep mine.

Cheers lads, really appreciate all the advice. kit there is no code just a constant light on. Mech wants to find the module to check it. He has an idea now so fingers crossed, thanks again all.
