I'm still trying to diagnose an ABS problem in my `91 V8 5-speed (without the benefit of a Bosch ABS tester). As I mentioned before, a solenoid will start operating at very low speeds as I'm approaching a stop. Lately, the system will switch itself off when driving at highway speeds (no braking). I'm reasonably sure it's a wheel sensor problem, but I Ohm'ed each one and they all came up within reasonable values (1.26-1.28 kOhm). I'll next check if one is shorted to ground. I have a couple of questions: 1. Is there any easy way I can figure out which wheel the system thinks is locking up? 2. What does the wheel sensor itself output (i.e., a voltage or a frequency)? I plan to take home a portable battery oscilloscope this weekend, if I can figure out what to try to measure with it. I'd appreciate any advice you can give me.
