Dear Petrified Rabbit.....

i would use antiseize on the calipers, either the copper or the silver, i forget which is higher temp. they will need cleaned up about yearly anyhow.

I do not own a corrado, too many around that if i need a corrado fix i will just borrow one for a week or so.

must be a pittsburgh thing, because im the only one in my area with one. or at least, im the only one that drives his. I JUST GOT THE CORRADO MANUEL, and i feel like indie running from the damn boulder. strangest thing, while i was driving tonight, the ABS light turned off, and i regained full utilities. but 5 minutes later they went out again, and it was welcome back suck.

ok. current diagnosis is...... i need a new hydraulic modulator. thats a big fancy word for the silver cluster **** with all the electronic lines running into it . i did that test, and i didnt hear the modulater re-pressureizing or even kick in. but the brake was stiff even after pressing it like 80 times. so according to the bentley i need a new unit. what the book doesnt tell me, is how to test the pressure switch, or pressure accumulator. anyone got a clue?

i'd like to, but i haven't been able to find a "how-to". the Bentley only tells me how to remove it, but not what needs to be replaced.

i dont know what else is involved other than connecting the lines on each side of the pump..
i would think do that, and then with the bypassed pump you would be able to unplug the harness, and then pull the bulb out of the light. everything else should be able to stay on.
