Xantia abs problem

Unread post by danielgusland »

Hi, I own a xantia 2000 HDI and I had to change the front brake pads because they were worn out. The change went painful without any problems, but after the repair the ABS has stopped working - the ABS light is not on, but the pedal simply doesn't strike back and the wheels lock full on - its pritty icy in Norway. Has anyone got a clue what it might be?

Best Regards

My first thoughts point towards the handbrake cables being caught in the hoop above the hub causing the pads to be pushed against the disc.
