Default ABS Problem

I just bought this '95 Accord last month and I heard that these models have been known to have an ABS problem at the motor, sometimes when I turn on my car I can hear this annoying buzz from the engine bay, plus the ABS light will come on sometimes, and when I turn off my car it & turn it back on again it dissapears. I know it's the ABS Motor, but I was just wondering if anyone else had the same problem. I heard it's an expensive unit, but I havent really checked into it yet.

Do a search on this topic.
It's probably the most covered topic on this site.
The sound you're hearing is your abs motor filling up the abs reservoir. You might have aleak in the resv. tank.

I had the light turn on a few times. I think it may have been becuase my brakes were really hott and/or i don't know actually lol.


Same year though, same problem.

my integra LS does the same after replacing the modulator with an old one. You might want to check the level in the ABS resevoir, I think I have mine too high and I'll probably do the ABS bleeding ...

Use a paper clip to short the diagnostic harness under the glove box. Turn the key to the ON position, and count the blink sequence.

If the buzz is coming from the front,.. then it's most prob the abs motor.

Do you have a ex? I take it you do to have the abs. On my 95 integ I had the abs light come on and came down to when I put on my sprint tower brace I pinched the wire going to my brake fluid resivor.

It is an EX, but I haven't messed with anything yet, It was like this when I bought the car about a month ago, it's really annoying though, it buzzes when im parked & driving & people are always like "what's that" & I have to explain.

ohhhh i was thinking like a little buzz when u turn the car on and thats it. mine does it like for a second but just when u turn the car on which is not even anything with the abs. if is making that buzz sound even when u drive or is on park then is something wrong for sure.
