What is your question?
I read the article on this site: brake-hydraulic-system-red-warning-light I understand from this article this can be considered serious. The yellow ABS light has been on for years and for a long time the red brake light would come on intermittently. I could be parked in a parking lot with the engine running and light might just come on or go off. It does not flash or come and go quickly. It was off for months. Then back on again. Brake fluid has never been low. Sometimes the light would come on or go off if I hit a bump in the road just right. I'm not kidding. Now the red light stays on and therfore won't pass inspection. A diagnostic was done at the issue was determined to be the ECBM module. Unfortunately, this part is not made anymore and apparently the 1997 used a different kind of ECBM than the several years worth of models before and after it. Garage working on it has gotten 2 different 1997 ECBM modules and neither has solved the problem and now they are doing "further diagnosis". This is racking up a major repair bill for a car that I don't drive more than a 1000 miles a year. I'm getting frustrated and just looking for some sense in what could be going on here as the mechanics seem to be stumped right now. Thanks in advance for any info anyone can provide. Cheers!

WHO IS DIAGNOSING? DO THEY HAVE A DEALER/FACTORY TECH 2 SCANNER AND A LAB SCOPE? The ECBM could be the cause but so could a faulty level sensor, ignition switch, wiring, Antilock Brake System (ABS) Motor Pack, mater cylinder or not using the scanner to properly bleed system. If this still has not been properly diagnosed and repaired, I know we can, call Roy 456-0722 and make sure to let him know if you want a $10 rental car while yours is being diagnosed and repaired
