Volvo Performance Club in association with HLM Chiptuning (aka Volvotuning) are able to offer a ABS repair service - Call 01527 577710 for details or by sending an email to info@chiptuninguk.com. Just quote "ABS repair service" in your email.

Repair is for 1994 models onwards. It includes all 850 and 70 series upto 2002.

Symptoms usually are classified as intermittent warning lights for the ABS and/or TRACS lights comng on or staying on after start up. Other symptoms also include the warning light being triggered by a bump in the road - the ABS pump will fire and send a shudder through the car and the light will come on.
Frequency of the light coming on will increase until the light is on all the time

Diagnostics available (by appointment)

For those requiring this service - HLM will be happy to send you full details including unit removal instructions and all other details you need.
You can have it done when talking the car to HLM or via a postal service.
DIY removal comes with full instructions. E5 torx sockets (1/4 inch drive) can be supplied as necessary on DIY removal.
Installation of the repaired unit is the exact reverse of removal.

This service carries a 12 month warranty (subject to conditions) on the repair work.

For safety and legal reasons - it not recommended that you drive your car without the ABS unit - The speedometer and the cruise control will not work while the unit is removed. The ABS and TRACS (If your car has it) will not work while the ABS Control Unit is removed (These do not work when the ABS light is ON), which is the same situation as when your ABS Unit has failed.
