Default Re: Recurring ABS mystery on 96 Accord

Hi, Curly, and thanks. Sliders were checked and were in new condition.
Another symptom that supports 'his' theory on the flex hose is that
sometimes when the car has sat overnight ( regardless of temperatures), the
brakes feel 'stuck', albeit very lightly and only when I initially take off.
By stuck, I mean same feeling as when the brakes freeze overnight after
being exposed to liquid water in freezing conditions.

Thanks for the link- I will check it out. Never done the CODES before and
thought I needed a special instrument.
