Rancid90SE

my 1990 se 5speed...i was drivin around and the red brake light was on on the dash and the e-brake was all the way down,and luckily i was up the street and i just lost all brake pedal pressure,and i seen there was fluid running down the goofy *** ABS thing under the hood from like the side of it,it looks like this will be expensive,if anyones had this problem,give me your 2 cents,thanks

I've seen a few 92-94s that have needed new ABS pumps. parts and labor ran about $700. not something you want to try and do yourself either.

I'm having ABS problems on my 91 SE auto with 199,100 miles, but I'm getting a code 6, that's for the left font wheel senor. My pump seems good, but for some strange reason, I have to keep topping off with break fluid. Pedal pressure is firm and solid. I just don't know where the fluid is going. Also I've heard that the ABS pumps can run as much as $1400 from nissan. I'll try and get my ABS fixed soon, I've had two recent close calls without it.

BTW, Matt that sure is won purdy red Max (country slackers voice). How does that compare to your old GXE? Just curious about how it is when going from a VG to a VE.

$250 for sensor thats why I dont get my left one fixed. Maybe for winter

Yeah, I was checking the junk yards for a used sensor, but none of the maximas had ABS, and the only came on the SE's for the 3rd gens. But before I buy a sensor, I want to make sure it's actually the sensor and it's not just electrical. I hate to buy something new that I can't take back. I think it's strange that everyone's left sensor is going bad at the same time like that. Go figure
